Canonical adds instance modification to Multipass, and more • The Register [Ed: Canonical is working for Microsoft while Microsoft attacks Linux, moreover promoting WSL (Windows), which goes against Ubuntu, the prime brand of Canonical]
Never one to shy away from tootling its own trumpet, Ubuntu Linux maker Canonical has talked up the instance modification features of version 1.10 of its lightweight VM manager, Multipass.
Multipass is a handy tool for developers seeking to simulate a small cloud deployment on a workstation (so long as Ubuntu is your thing, of course) and – unlike something like Microsoft's Windows Subsystem for Linux – will straddle platforms using KVM in Linux, HyperKit on macOS, and Hyper-V on Windows.
The Canonical team has been quietly working away on the platform over the years and recently released version 1.10, a major update of which is the ability to modify the RAM use, disk space, and CPU core of existing instances. While it is a little surprising that it has taken so long for something that VM wranglers usually take for granted to arrive, the update is a welcome for developers less than keen to destroy and rebuild an instance just to add a bit more RAM.
