Seeing as how you can already run normal Linux like a unikernel on N-1 cores, and get all of the debugging and management goodness on core 0, I don't see the point. At all.
- eyberg 8y agothe big idea is that most companies are heavily virtualized - if you are using aws/gce you most definitely are and many private datacenters are as well - I'm not going to speak for ukl in particular but in general unikernels are vastly more secure than a normal process and much faster (if you are already virtualized which you are on aws/gce) - there is absolutely no reason to have 2 layers of linux if you are in 'the cloud'
