One of the first projects on unikernels, MirageOS is a library operating system containing various libraries used to build unikernel applications. Applications are written in OCaml, development is done using libraries that are transformed to kernel routines when compiled to a unikernel image. Images generated with MirageOS are deployable to Xen, KVM/QEMU hypervisors and RTOS/MCU. The project is still maintained on [GitHub](https://github.com/mirage/mirage), with version 3.0 released in February 2017. +#### [Nanos Unikernel](https://www.nanovms.com/) + +Made by [NanoVMs](https://www.nanovms.com/), industry-ready unikernel provider.

It can also be run on a variety of platforms such as VirtualBox, VMWare ESXi, KVM, Amazon EC2 and Google Compute Engine. Virtual appliances with widely used applications are also directly available (Memcached, redis and Apache Cassandra). @@ -272,6 +278,7 @@ Out of the various existing projects, some standout due to their wide range of s | HalVM | Haskell | Xen | | | IncludeOS | C++ | KVM, VirtualBox, ESXi, Google Cloud, OpenStack | Orchestration tool available | | MirageOS | OCaml | KVM, Xen, RTOS/MCU | | +| Nanos Unikernel | C, C++, Go, Java, Node.js, Python, Rust, Ruby, PHP, etc | QEMU/KVM | Orchestration tool available | | OSv | Java, C, C++, Node, Ruby | VirtualBox, ESXi, KVM, Amazon EC2, Google Cloud | Cloud and IoT (ARM) | | Rumprun | C, C++, Erlan, Go, Java, JavaScript, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Rust | Xen, KVM | | | Unik | Go, Node.js, Java, C, C++, Python, OCaml | VirtualBox, ESXi, KVM, XEN, Amazon EC2, Google Cloud, OpenStack, PhotonController | Unikernel compiler toolbox with orchestration possible through Kubernetes and Cloud Foundry |
