I really want to start using unikernels but I'm not sure where to start. I really like MirageOS but being limited to OCaml is a barrier to entry for me. As an alternative, I'm looking at OSv because it works with the JVM. And lastly, I'm keeping an eye out on hyper.sh because I feel like it can conceptually solve some of the same problems as unikernels, except leveraging existing investment in docker.
As a dev with most of my experience being in JavaScript, Java, and Python, is there any advice you could give me?
Have you come across Rumpkernel? I'd recommend looking at that since it can work with legacy code. There's a static-website tutorial that describes how to use Nginx as a unikernel.
