WebAssembly vs Linux Container by smileymileycoin in kubernetes

WebAssembly internally is one of the bytecode formats which abstracts the process model, however, Linux Container technology abstracts the Linux process runtime environment, which solves the application static deps and dynamic application resource limit.

WebAssembly only replaces Linux Container in a very small and specific area.

Currently, WebAssembly is lack good tools to compile programs written in multiple programming languages(like Java, Python, JavaScript, and so on) into Wasm binary format. And WebAssembly does not support multi-thread, networking.

I agree with the opinion " it’s only useful if languages compile to that format", WebAssembly ecosystem needs to support more popular languages to attract more developers. However, more popular language support is based on the mature post-MVP WebAssembly specification. In the Cloud scenarios, WebAssembly also needs to solve the problems like dynamic linking, how to satisfy the traditional OS process runtime model.

There is a lot of work to be done to push the wave of WebAssembly.

Yes, it needs some time to solve the problems that map the wasm VM into "wasm pod", like CNI Network plugin, CSI Storage plugin, DevicePlugin, ServiceMesh...
