Firecracker is a fine technology, but serverless companies have started taking advantage Wasm's faster start-up and invocation times for use cases of running Wasm on the server (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqgCxhPAao0). The deny by default security policy makes Wasm a great choice to run your code in isolation, particularly for maximizing hardware resources in the multi-tenant environments these serverless companies operate.

A lot of people ask why one would use Extism and how exactly does it help, so I wrote a blog post to explain it detail. I hope it is informative!
Re:WASI Command and Reactor Modules in WebAssembly on Tuesday September 05, 2023 @10:51AM (#37392448)
To help spread some knowledge and make WebAssembly more approachable, me and a couple of colleagues decided to do a write up on the concept of Command vs Reactor modules. We hope this saves someone the time and energy!

Thanks for the feedback, we've done some internal work to verify open source, self hosted platforms like Jaeger, Zipkin, and OpenObserve. Official support is coming soon!

Did you mean to make that comment on this post? The article talks about getting deeper insights into the execution of Wasm modules
