Vitamin-V: Results and Lessons Learnt
2026-06-10 , Poster Island C

Vitamin‑V (2023–2025) is a Horizon Europe project building a production‑grade, open‑source RISC‑V ecosystem for cloud environments. It extends RISC-V ISA support in three execution platforms (QEMU, gem5, FPGA), enables virtualization and contributes to the development of full cloud‑native stacks—OpenStack, Kubernetes, Kata Containers, RustVMM. The project also boosts commercial developments from Semidynamics, ZeroPoint, and Virtual Open Systems. This paper summarizes the technical outcomes and lessons learned.
