Re: Drawbridge?

"SQL Server for Linux runs atop a Drawbridge Windows library OS – a user-mode NT kernel – within a secure container called a picoprocess that communicates with the host Linux operating system through the Drawbridge application binary interface."

Cool - so basically they are using Linux as a container / hypervisor. So presumably all the security and ease of use advantages of SQL Server and Windows - for instance Kerberos Delegation - will still work just fine? I guess probably it's slower though on Linux....
