OSv will need NVMe and ena drivers.
Why is that, have you seen documentation (or saw in your own tests) that
they will not support virtio-blk and virtio-net on their KVM?
It will not be supported, native drivers only.
Do you know why is that?
I can guess that they prefer to support one set of devices/drivers rather
than two. Native will have far better performance, so why bother?
New instances will have new HW, so in the end they will have to support
more than one set of drivers anyway.
What about migration?
Migration from what? Old AMIs aren't guaranteed to support virtio.
Live migration for high availability. Although I am not sure that was
supported with XEN.
Xen supports migration, But AWS does not.
Sure. I meant XEN AWS instances migration support status.
I think they could, since those "native" interfaces are actually terminated
in their Annapurna chips, not the actual hardware, so they can program those
chips to perform live migration.
Don't you need DMA "page fault" support for that.
I forgot about that.
Do you know what is
its status?
No.
Although with custom HW something non standard can be hacked
probably. But NVMe is not produced by Amazon.
I guess it could be hacked, but even more, that Amazon doesn't care.
With stateless micro-services migration is needed less and less (and the
stateful stores handle migration themselves, like ScyllaDB).
