  On-prem, hosted, or dedicated hosted

When code is generated by AI and deployed automatically, the infrastructure behind it must be radically faster and lighter. That's why Vercel Ventures invested in Unikraft: their cloud infrastructure technology provides exponentially higher efficiency and scalability, along with the strong isolation this new frontier demands.

With Unikraft, we can run over 100,000 strongly isolated PostgreSQL instances on a single machine. That density is unheard of in traditional architectures and fundamentally changes the economics of the game — we’re stepping into a new infrastructure paradigm.

With Unikraft, we successfully scaled our enterprise web agent infrastructure to handle increased demand while maintaining the reliability and performance standards our enterprise customers expect. Working with the Unikraft team has been exceptional - their expertise and responsiveness made our deployment smooth and successful.

Unikraft team has been working on some really cool tech for the next-gen of serverless and now Unikraft Cloud lets anyone use it easily!

Choosing Unikraft to power our platform was one the best decisions we’ve made. It’s a powerful and reliable service and the support is fantastic..

Looks like the unikernel folks were on to something. Compute platforms are trending towards orchestrating micro virtual machines purpose built for running a single application.

Imagine running thousands of pods on K8s with just your app code and required libraries, like Alpine images on steroids.'

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe @libsqlhq server running with Unikraft Cloud and cold booting in 30 milliseconds 🤯💎🚀"

Unikraft and Unikraft Cloud are messing with my head. It's a step change in cloud performance.

You guys are doing cloud rocket science.

Hail Unikernels!! The future of Cloud Computing is here with Unikraft 🙌

I was actually more impressed with unikernels with Unikraft than WASM. (And that is saying a lot if you know how I feel about unikernels).

This is some seriously impressive tech. I deployed a Rust + Axum API that can cold-start instantly without requiring any wasm specific modifications like Cloudflare Workers.

It is a gorgeous way to build lightweight and secure VM images.

If you want both security and lightness... you can actually have it!

This has revolutionised our infrastructure — offering efficiency and scalability at a great price-point. It’ll be a game-changer for all devops workflows.

We took Go codebases we’ve been working with from an average of ~4s startup with Docker on GCP to ~30ms on Unikraft Cloud.

I am very impressed with Unikraft. These people are pioneering a next generation approach to cloud computing that is much faster, secure, and sustainable than anything else I’ve seen in the space. This will be bigger than the Docker revolution from the past decade.

The Unikraft folks are doing some incredible engineering!

My favorite unikernel framework.

This is certainly the future of zero-cost amortized compute per user 💯
