US Patent 12073232 Unikernel for webassembly containers

Systems and methods for deploying and running webassembly workloads on compute nodes using a webassembly unikernel. A computing device having a processor generates, using a container engine, a container runtime. The computing device generates, using the container runtime, a unikernel configured to run a plurality of webassembly applications, thereby resulting in a webassembly unikernel. The computing device may receive a request to run an application. A container image corresponding to the application may be retrieved, via the container engine, from a container registry. A webassembly payload may be stored for the application from the container image. Furthermore, the computing device may cause the webassembly unikernel to run the webassembly payload for the application.
