A longer video by Stonebreaker (PostgreSQL) about DBOS (DataBase Operative System) on 2023-04-26:

“Michael Stonebraker - DBOS: A Database-oriented Operating System” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eB4bJqDzsU8

I’ve been thinking of building something like this for some years, and I read that IBM’s AS400 (now iSystems I think) worked essentially in this way.

As noted at the end of the video, their (DBOS) website is here, ane they are open sourcing some of the code: https://dbos-project.github.io/
