Preface

This report is an introductory volume on unikernels. It is not meant to be a tutorial or how-to guide, but rather a high-level overview of unikernel technology. It will also cover the problems that unikernels address, the unikernel projects that currently exist, the ecosystem elements that support them, the limits of unikernel technology, and some thoughts about the future of the technology. By the time you are finished, you should have a good understanding of what unikernels are and how they could play a significant role in the future of the cloud.

Acknowledgments
