Abstract

A computing system is disclosed. The computing system includes a computation unit, one or more processors, a volatile memory, and a non-volatile memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon, which when executed by the one or more processors, causing the one or more processor to instantiate a container and perform at least one of a volatile memory checking procedure or a non-volatile memory checking procedure. The volatile memory checking procedure includes checking the first physical address space for errors, loading a container into volatile memory containing the first physical address space if an error is determined, rechecking the first physical address space for error, loading the container to a second physical address space and updating a memory management unit if an error in the first physical address space is determined.
