The Next Generation Cloud: Unleashing the Power of the Unikernel

Invited Talk
Thursday, November 12, 2015 - 2:45pm-3:30pm

Russell Pavlicek, Xen Project Evangelist

Abstract: 

Docker & containers have sparked much excitement over the concept of small, easily deployable VMs. But unikernels create even smaller VMs with much higher security than container-based solutions. The next generation cloud can leverage unikernels to do more in a smaller footprint while actually increasing overall security, while the cloud model will expand to include the concept of transient microservices.
