Hermit-RS is a Rust-based unikernel designed for high-performance and cloud computing applications. By combining the safety and concurrency features of Rust with the minimalistic approach of unikernels, Hermit-RS offers a secure and efficient runtime environment. It is particularly suited for running single-tenant applications directly on hypervisors or bare-metal hardware, reducing overhead and improving performance.
