Lynx Software Technologies Releases the Industry’s First Commercial Unikernel with POSIX Compatibility

General News

Summary

Unikernels work best for applications requiring speed, agility and a small attack surface for increased security and certifiability such as aircraft systems, autonomous vehicles and critical infrastructure. Existing open-source Unikernel implementations haven’t seen great success due to a lack of adequate functionality, no clear path to safety certification and immature toolchains for debugging and producing images. “We’ve created the opportunity for customers to now host multiple real-time capabilities in parallel on a single multiprocessor device without impacting safety or performance, while also enabling the development of platform architectures with lower overall SWaP.” The initial focus of LynxElement is centered on security, and a common use case would be to run security components like IDS and VPNs.
