We are a nonprofit open source software cooperative whose mission is to develop robust and secure digital infrastructure. We strive to enable more people to reliably run their own infrastructure by producing correct, surprise-free software to be deployed in real environments. Our software aims to meet the needs of anyone working in an environment where security and dependability is vital. ---

We write all our code in a high-level memory-safe (and more secure) programming language called [OCaml](/Our%20Work/Technology-Employed#Ocaml). In addition each piece of software leverages [MirageOS](/Our%20Work/Technology-Employed#MirageOS) (a minimal operating system) to produce bespoke applications tailored to only contain their required functionality. Each service is executed on virtual machines with a size usually around 1-10 MB, much smaller than a UNIX / Linux system, and it boots within milliseconds.

Where other approaches try to patch general purpose operating systems by adding more layers, we strive to build a secure system from the ground up. Where other approaches try to patch general purpose operating systems by adding more layers, we strive to build a secure system from the ground up.

# MirageOS # MirageOS
MirageOS is a software suite to build custom-tailored operating systems from (mostly open source) small individual libraries. It has been developed since 2009 at the University of Cambridge, UK and is written in the programming language [OCaml](/Technology-Employed#Ocaml).

It has been developed since 2009 at the University of Cambridge, UK and is written in the programming language [OCaml](/Our%20Work/Technology-Employed#Ocaml).
It compiles the necessary OCaml libraries into a unikernel - a small operating system, each built for a certain purpose. For each unikernel we can pick from hundreds of permissively licensed open source libraries which implement network protocols, storage on block devices, or interfaces to network devices via the hypervisor or host operating system. As we only put into each one exactly what is needed, each unikernel is fast; instantly booting and, as there is less code base, it is easier to maintain and keep secure.
