Abstract
A computing fabric includes one or more host computing platforms and a plurality of partitions instantiated across the one or more host computing platforms, each of the plurality of partitions allocated computing resources of the one or more host computing platforms. The computing fabric further includes a hypervisor installed on the one or more host computing platforms and managing interactions among the plurality of partitions. The plurality of partitions includes a persistent partition to which one or more storage devices are allocated, the persistent partition executing software loaded from a trusted storage location and executing from a non-volatile memory.
