Embedded within the Linux kernel, KVM empowers the creation of VMs with their virtualized hardware components, such as CPUs, memory, storage, and network cards, essentially mimicking a machine. Additionally, its standing development history since 2006 ensures a stable virtualization platform.

It's an exciting development in cloud computing: hardware virtualization is now fast. I've summarized hypervisor developments in EC2 with the above diagram. It's amazing to recall that it was even possible to virtualize x86 before processors had hardware-assisted virtualization (Intel VT-x and AMD-V), which were added in 2005 and 2006.

The epoch of AWS is the launch of Amazon S3 on March 14, 2006, now almost 10 years ago. This becomes an even more important lesson at scale: for example, as S3 processes trillions and trillions of storage transactions, anything that has even the slightest probability of error will become realistic. Primitives not frameworks.

I published a paper and presentation in 2006 that discusses the complexities of measuring CPU utilization. The Kepler project has developed what looks like a good approach to this, and I’ve started a discussion there to explore what would be needed [link].
