KubeVirt is a Kubernetes virtualization platform and cloud-native hypervisor manager. It provides a runtime environment that allows virtual machines to be defined, launched, and managed as declarative resources within a Kubernetes cluster, enabling them to run alongside containers on the same nodes. The system enables the hybridization of cloud infrastructure by combining traditional virtual machines with containerized workloads on a single shared platform. It supports the live migration of running virtual machines between physical hosts to facilitate cluster maintenance and load balancing.

The project provides an open container runtime specification and standardized schema for defining container configurations, namespaces, resource limits, security policies, and filesystem mounts across platforms. It outlines the formal configuration formats, lifecycle operations, and execution environments necessary for portable, isolated container workloads. The specification covers container lifecycle management protocols and structured rules governing container creation, execution startup, process signaling, state tracking, and resource teardown. It standardizes local bundle packaging and
