- Docker has always used microVMs (well, since 2016) There's a lot of buzz about "microVMs", where a workload runs with a stripped down Linux kernel, on a minimalist VMM such as firecracker (announced at re:Invent 2018) on top of a hypervisor like KVM or Xen.
- MicroVMs are often contrasted to, and considered more secure than, traditional Linux Docker containers.
- What if I told you that Docker Desktop has always used microVMs?
