I admit I was going by assumptions, based on the fact I had never heard about it before, despite having been in the CI/CD treadmill for a few years. > https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker Hm. V 1.0.0 came out in Jan/Feb 2022, so in that sense, it's somewhat new. Might have been in production use in pre-1.0.0 versions, of course. I tend to assume software exists starting with 1.0.0, pre-1.0 versions tend to be very experimental and/or require handholding by the engineers that are building it. Of course, for a shop like AWS, that's not always the most accurate assumption :-) Regards, Jo
