WASM has an OS abstraction API that ends up being pretty good. There's work in progress on cross language resource sharing, interface types, etc. It's early days yet but this is generating excitement for WASM as a sort of very lightweight cross language container/vm. It's also useful in "plugin" scenarios, like say filtering code in a network proxy. Or if you wanted to make your own Function as a Service system.
