Unikraft (https://unikraft.org/) is a fast, secure and open-source Unikernel Development Kit. Started as a research project under the Xen Foundation, Unikraft is now reaching technical (and commercial) maturity, being able to run a large set of applications with all the advantages typical to a unikernel: fast booting, low memory footprint, virtual machine isolation. During this talk we will share the current technical state of the project, together with updates that make it seamless to integrate popular apps running in cloud workloads (web servers, proxies, programming frameworks, databases etc.). Using binary-compatibility mode, Unikraft is able to integrate common Docker-based setups and facilitate the rapid integration of existing applications into the unikernel technology. With the help of its companion tool, KraftKit, Unikraft is able to leverage the inherent unikernel advantages to easily run existing apps. This helps seamlessly use and deploy Unikraft apps on different platforms and architectures, with a recent addition of Xen ARM64 to the list of supported platforms.
