Analyzing Nested CVM Performance on KVM/QEMU and Linux Root Partition for Hyper-V - Comparative Study

Explore a comprehensive conference talk from KVM Forum that delves into the performance analysis of nested virtualization technologies. Compare KVM/QEMU and Linux as Root Partition for Microsoft Hyper-V with Cloud-Hypervisor as VMM in terms of performance, scalability, and efficiency. Examine various metrics including CPU utilization, memory consumption, I/O throughput, and latency across different workloads and configurations. Investigate the guest attestation process and security aspects within these hypervisor stacks. Gain valuable insights into the operational characteristics and suitability of each technology for nested confidential guest environments. The 24-minute presentation, delivered by Muminul Islam, a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft Linux Platform Group, and Jinank Jain, a Linux Kernel Engineer at Microsoft, offers a deep dive into the world of advanced cloud technologies and virtualization.
