Firecracker is a technology that helps run container and function workloads securely and efficiently. It uses lightweight virtual machines called microVMs, which combine the security of hardware virtualization with the speed of containers. This makes it faster to start up and more secure, as it reduces the attack surface area. Firecracker is open source and was developed by Amazon Web Services to improve services like AWS Lambda and AWS Fargate. Using Firecracker benefits users by providing a secure, fast, and efficient way to manage serverless workloads, making it ideal for multi-tenant environments.
