CTOnews.com, April 24, local time on the morning of April 21, at the KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2023 Cloud Prototyping Summit held in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Ren Xudong, director of CNCF and chief open source liaison officer of Huawei, announced that Kuasar was officially open source when the cloud native sandbox container was running.

The Kuasar project is jointly launched by Huawei Cloud, Agricultural Bank of China, openEuler Community, WasmEdge Community and Quark Containers Community. It combines Huawei Cloud's many years of production business practice and thinking about the development of sandbox technology, and is based on the emerging sandbox interface in the industry.

According to reports, Kuasar is an efficient container runtime that provides cloud native and full-scene container solutions by supporting a variety of sandboxie technologies. It is written in Rust and provides a standard sandbox abstraction based on sandboxed API. In addition, Kuasar provides an optimized framework to speed up container startup and reduce unnecessary overhead.

At present, at the southbound sandbox level, Kuasar already supports many kinds of mainstream security sandboxes, including Cloud-Hypervisor (MicroVM class), WasmEdge (Wasm class), StratoVirt (MicroVM class) and Quark (App Kernel). The deep cooperation between Kuasar and openEuler and WasmEdge communities is under way, and the Kuasar project looks forward to working with more sandbox projects or communities to continuously improve the support for all kinds of mainstream sandbox technologies.

At the northbound interface level, Kuasar is working with the industry's mainstream container runtime containerd to build the latest sandbox interface standard, which has added the roadmap of containerd v2.0; in addition, the lightweight container engine iSulad project of the openEuler community has also completed the docking with the Kuasar project.

Facing the future, Kuasar will embrace the latest management interfaces such as DRA (Dynamic Resource Allocation) and CDI (Container Device Interface) in the industry.
