LiteBox is a security-focused “library OS” sandboxing project that aims to shrink the interface between an application and its host environment to reduce attack surface. Instead of relying solely on broad OS-level permissions, it focuses on isolating workloads by tightly controlling the boundary where code interacts with host services and system resources. The design emphasizes interoperability across different integration layers, describing a separation between “North” shims (how apps or runtimes plug in) and “South” platforms (where the sandbox runs), which helps the system adapt to multiple deployment contexts. ...

Perfetto is a production-grade tracing platform for Android, Linux, and Chrome that captures extremely detailed information about what a system is doing over time. It’s designed around a low-overhead producer/consumer model: instrumented components (“producers”) write binary events into shared memory buffers and a collector (“service”) reliably streams them to storage. The data model spans kernel and userspace, so you can stitch together CPU scheduling, app lifecycles, binder/IPC hops, GPU...

Unikraft powers the next generation of cloud-native, containerless applications by enabling you to radically customize and build custom OS/kernels; unlocking best-in-class performance, security primitives, and efficiency savings. Unikraft optimizes resource utilization, leading to smaller footprints (meaning higher server saturation) and improved efficiency in resource-constrained environments. Unikraft is an open-source project driven by a vibrant community of over 100 developers, fostering...
