OpenVMM

OpenVMM is a modular, cross-platform Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM), written in Rust.

Although it can function as a traditional VMM, OpenVMM's development is currently focused on its role in the OpenHCL paravisor.

This repo is the home for both projects.

For more information, read our guide or our introductory blog post.
