alt Hacker News> Each agent runs inside a dedicated microVM with your dev environment
What's a "microVM" and what's the security model here compared to using real virtual machines with actual constraints on breakouts?
Is it marketing fluff?
Incus/LXD has had VM's for a long time now.
incus launch images:ubuntu/26.04 my-ubuntu-vm --vm
incus exec my-ubuntu-vm -- bashReplies

That's a full VM. Microvms are much smaller and they start up very very fast. In miliseconds.
It’s real VMs, firecracker style.
