The characteristics of Azalea-unikernel are as follows:
1) Since the kernel and the application using the same address space, the overhead such as having to replace privileges is reduced, making it lighter than the LWK.
2) It provides the capability to run legacy applications. Existing source codes can be recompiled with minimal modifications or statically built Linux binaries can be executed immediately.
3) I/O performance is improved by offloading and processing I/O operations to the full-weight kernel (FWK). |
