OpenHCL: Understanding Microsoft's open source paravisor
Briefly

Microsoft's Confidential Computing solutions leverage a new virtualization method called paravisor. This enables encrypted data processing without frequent dependency on OS updates, ensuring efficiency.
Paravisors build on full paravirtualization, allowing the client OS to manage isolated workloads while maintaining performance parity between secured and unsecured operations, ensuring a seamless user experience.
This model enhances security by permitting secure operations to enjoy the same hardware access and priority as unsecured ones, ultimately reducing potential performance bottlenecks.
Using a paravisor for confidential computing not only streamlines integration between virtualization services and operating systems but also mitigates risks associated with constant updates.
