Talk: It is no accident that Xen Project software powers some of the largest clouds in existence. From its outset, the Xen Project Hypervisor was intended to enable what we now call Cloud Computing. This session will explore how the hypervisor's architecture addresses the needs of the cloud in ways which facilitate security, throughput, and agility. It will also cover some of the hot new developments of the Xen Project, including the use of unikernels to create lightweight VMs with the nimbleness of Linux containers, but with extremely high levels of security.
