Microkernel Architecture

A microkernel architecture is an OS pattern where only basic functionality is provided in the core of the software system. Components, including drivers and applications, are then plugged into the microkernel. These are standalone, independent pieces of code that enhance the core functionality or provide additional specialized features.
