FTL: A new operating system for clouds
FTL flips the container isolation problem: each container links a shared library implementing its own processes, VFS and TCP/IP, while a minimal kernel offers just enough interface to run Linux syscalls in userspace. The pitch is lightweight containers with VM-grade isolation, no bare metal needed. It’s at v0.1.0 this month (async Rust, threads, epoll) and the project’s website is served from it. Node.js and Go land in December.
