Summary: Today the Datanauts embark on a weight loss program for the compute stack by getting into unikernels.<br> Rather than standing up a full operating system, how about packaging your application to run as a binary that can be created in an immutable fashion and updated in a snap? That’s idea behind unikernels.<br> In particular, we’re looking at one effort called IncludeOS. Our guest is <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/perbu" rel="noopener">Per Buer</a>, the CEO of <a target="_blank" href="http://www.includeos.org/" rel="noopener">IncludeOS</a>. We’ll talk about how unikernels differ from a traditional OS, their benefits and tradeoffs, use cases for the technology, and more. Per also gives an overview of the IncludeOS software.<br> Show Links:<br> <a target="_blank" href="https://www.includeos.org/" rel="noopener">IncludeOS.org</a><br> <a target="_blank" href="https://www.unikernel.org/" rel="noopener">Unikernel.org</a><br> <a target="_blank" href="https://devel.unikernel.org/" rel="noopener">Unikernel Devel.org</a><br> <a target="_blank" href="https://packetpushers.net/podcast/podcasts/datanauts-063-unikernels-vs-containers/" rel="noopener">Datanauts 063: Unikernels Vs.
