Hermit-RS is a Rust-based unikernel designed for high-performance and cloud computing applications. By combining the safety and concurrency features of Rust with the minimalistic approach of unikernels, Hermit-RS offers a secure and efficient runtime environment. It is particularly suited for running single-tenant applications directly on hypervisors or bare-metal hardware, reducing overhead and improving performance.

Features

  • Unikernel architecture minimizing the attack surface and resource consumption
  • Implemented in Rust for enhanced safety and performance
  • Direct deployment on hypervisors without the need for a host OS
  • Support for x86_64 architecture with plans for additional architectures
  • Integration with Rust's standard library facilitating application development
  • Networking capabilities enabling communication over standard protocols
  • Scalability suitable for cloud-native applications and microservices
  • Compatibility with existing tools for building and deployment
  • Active development community contributing to ongoing improvements
