"Begun the unikernel wars, have"
From my fairly naive-POV it seems like UniKernels are the next logical step in computing. Docker being the last jump and unikernels sitting to be the next with some form of WASM as a host.

They're solving similar problems in terms of reducing image size, startup time, security surface area, and so on. But the mechanism is quite different, so it feels like basically none of the tooling will translate. Like, where is the Kubernetes of unikernel deployments? It would have to be built from scratch, and would probably end up looking more like Terraform than like the Kubernetes of today.
We'll be launching managed kubernetes support for Unikraft unikernels soon too at https://unikraft.io
