andersonbcdefg · x · 2026-11-12
gVisor, Google's application sandbox, is joining the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, with Modal becoming one of its maintainers. Modal has run gVisor in production since day one and has upstreamed GPU support, multi-node training, snapshots, and more—all open source. Longtime contributor luiscape says the goal is to make gVisor the best runtime for AI systems, whether coding agents, training workloads, or inference engines—a notable signal for sandboxing untrusted AI-generated code.
