About

The AWS Nitro System is the foundation for the latest generation of Amazon EC2 instances, enabling AWS to innovate faster, reduce costs for customers, and deliver enhanced security and new instance types. By reimagining virtualization infrastructure, AWS has offloaded functions such as CPU, storage, and networking virtualization to dedicated hardware and software, allowing nearly all server resources to be allocated to instances. This architecture comprises several key components: Nitro Cards, which offload and accelerate I/O for functions like VPC, EBS, and instance storage; the Nitro Security Chip, providing a minimized attack surface and prohibiting administrative access to eliminate human error and tampering; and the Nitro Hypervisor, a lightweight hypervisor that manages memory and CPU allocation, delivering performance nearly indistinguishable from bare metal. The Nitro System's modular design allows for rapid delivery of EC2 instance types.

About

KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V). It consists of a loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides the core virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module, kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified Linux or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware: a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc. KVM is open source software. The kernel component of KVM is included in mainline Linux, as of 2.6.20. The userspace component of KVM is included in mainline QEMU, as of 1.3.
