SEAPATH is the newest open-source virtualization hypervisor on the scene. While it focuses on being a security-hardened, real-time hypervisor its principal focus -- and why it's being worked on by the Linux Foundation Energy crew -- is wanting it to be used for Digital Substation Automation Systems for electrical substations.

SEAPATH is designed to support Debian and Yocto Linux operating systems and hosting Virtualized Protection, Automation and Control workloads for power grids. Quite a niche focus and our first time covering this SEAPATH project.

Huh, neat!
