A compelling introduction and explanation of Unikraft took place at USENIX LISA '18: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PRKBZHArhI I don't know if I'm a huge fan of the website that was posted here (the quick start doesn't actually show a python application, which is a bit odd), but Unikraft occupies an interesting spot in the unikernel landscape, it's very promising. Here are all some interesting languages/programs you can use it with: - https://github.com/unikraft/app-helloworld-go - https://github.com/unikraft/app-micropython - https://github.com/unikraft/app-nginx - https://github.com/unikraft/app-ruby - https://github.com/unikraft/app-lua - https://github.com/unikraft/app-redis - https://github.com/unikraft/app-python3 If you're interested in Unikernels, some more interesting/close-to-production-ready entries in the space worth watchin

g: - https://github.com/rumpkernel/rumprun-packages (hasn't seen much work recently unfortunately) - https://ssrg-vt.github.io/hermitux/ - https://github.com/hermitcore/rusty-hermit [EDIT] Looks like there are more talks that have popped up since 2018: FOSDEM 2019: Unikraft: Unikernels Made Easy[0] Building a Specialized Wasm Operating System with Unikraft, Sharan Santhanam[1] LVC20 107 Towards Highly Specialized, POSIX compliant Software Stacks with Unikraft[2] [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj6pO8zXGNg [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMffUqK2XQw [2]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLxFiDZQ6WA
