Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for an emulation layer for overcoming incompatibilities in virtual machine instance migration. In one embodiment, a virtual machine instance configured for a first computing architecture is executed in a first computing device having the first computing architecture. The virtual machine instance from the first computing device is migrated to a second computing device having a second computing architecture. The virtual machine instance is executed in the second computing device using an emulation layer that emulates the first computing architecture in the second computing architecture.
