To be held along with International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS'22).
With the advance of virtualization technology and the constant demand for specialization, security and performance, unikernels are no longer a fringe idea. In this tutorial we present Unikraft, a unikernel SDK aiming for extreme specialization.
Unikraft is an open source project with a growing and vibrant community available on GitHub and Discord.
This tutorial is highly practical. We will provide remote access to pre-configured machines where attendees will build, configure, run and measure Unikraft-based software components. The tutorial is planned to take place for 6 hours (e.g. 10am to 5pm - 1 hour break). Each section of this tutorial consists of a short presentation / demo (10-15 minutes) followed by practical work to be done by each attendee on their allocated remote machine. Trainers from the Unikraft community will provide instructions and support to attendees during the tutorial.
Building and running the site locally requires a recent extended
version of
Hugo. You can find out more about how to install Hugo for
your environment in our Getting
started
guide.
Once you've made your working copy of the site repo, from the repo root folder, run:
hugo server
You can run this website inside a Docker container,
the container runs with a volume bound to the docsy-example
folder. This
approach doesn't require you to install any dependencies other than Docker
Desktop on Windows and Mac.
-
Build the docker image
TARGET=devenv make container
-
Run the built image
make devenv
-
Once you are in the developer environment, you can call the hugo server command:
hugo server --bind 0.0.0.0
-
Verify that the service is working.
Open your web browser and type
http://localhost:1313
in your navigation bar, This opens a local instance of the docsy-example homepage. You can now make changes to the docsy example and those changes will immediately show up in your browser after you save.
