Sub-headline:SJTU researchers propose a dynamic MCPV model and CZone mechanism,slashing memory footprint by 90%

In serverless computing,the Single-Container-Per-VM(SCPV)model ensures security but causes significant memory waste due to redundant guestOS instances.A team from Shanghai Jiao Tong University developed CZone,a framework that enables a dynamic Multi-Containers-Per-VM(MCPV)model with efficient memory hot-plug/unplug capabilities.By ensuring contiguous physical memory allocation for each container,CZone overcomes performance degradation and incomplete memory reclamation.Compared to standard SCPV,CZone reduces startup latency by 81.81%and memory footprint by 89.87%,dramatically increasing deployment density.

Experimental results show that CZone brings an 81.81%reduction in startup latency and an 89.87%reduction in memory footprint compared to current SCPV models.
