Firecracker does not work with long running process. It's only good for function as a service / serverless stuff.

What is your definition of long running processes?

AWS Fargate (containers as a service for ECS/EKS) uses Firecracker under the hood, and you can easily have the container up for weeks, and probably even for months.

Similarly, Fly.io also uses Firecracker, and again, you can have weeks/months long uptime on containers.
