Abstract

The focus of this research work is to explore the operational considerations of using a lightweight operating system (OSV) over standard Linux-based operating systems for virtualization. We focus on three aspects: a review of published literature in regards to performance; a comparison of virtualization footprint for a common application (Apache Tomcat), and an analysis of the possible security advantages. The results provide a rationale as to when lightweight operating systems may be advantageous for virtualization.
