WebAssembly nanoprocesses: making WebAssembly outside-the-browser secure by default, Lin Clark
In early November, we announced the formation of the Bytecode Alliance, a new industry partnership working on WebAssembly outside the browser. We have a vision of a WebAssembly ecosystem that is secure by default, fixing cracks in today’s software foundations. And based on advances rapidly emerging in the WebAssembly community, we believe we can make this vision real.
I'll talk about one of these advances—an emerging pattern of usage that we've started calling a WebAssembly nanoprocess, which give you most of the benefits of a process, but with much less overhead and much faster communication. With this, we think we can make massively-modular code reuse—like you see in npm, crates, and PyPI—secure by default.
