VM/EPT Isolation Backend Evaluation

To facilitate the reproduction of the experiments conducted as part of the thesis we provide Docker images that allow to repeat these experiments. The experiments were originally conducted on a system equipped with an Intel Xeon Silver 4110 CPU with a base frequency of 2.1GHz (hyperthreading disabled) and 32GB of RAM. We recommend at least 60GB of free disk space to build all the required Docker images.

The base image must first be built from this dockerfile:

docker build --build-arg UK_KRAFT_GITHUB_TOKEN="<INSERT_VALID_TOKEN>" --tag flexos-ae-base -f Dockerfile.flexos-ae-base .
