Build with Confidential VMs

Confidential Virtual Machines (CVMs) enable secure and private computation in untrusted environments. By leveraging hardware-based encryption and secure enclaves, CVMs ensure that your sensitive data and applications remain protected even when running on third-party infrastructure. With Oyster's CVM tooling, you can create secure environments that maintain data privacy while still allowing for complex computations and operations.

Getting started​

Users who wish to build and deploy Confidential VMs should start with the tutorials to gain a basic understanding of what the Oyster platform offers and how to interact with it.

If you're feeling adventurous or just want to get a taste of what deploying an Oyster CVM looks like, head straight to the quickstart ;)

Core concepts​

Learn about the concepts at the heart of Oyster CVMs and how to wield them effectively.

Guides​

Follow these guides to accomplish specific tasks. Most guides assume a baseline knowledge of the Oyster platform that you can gain through the tutorials.

Examples​

Here are some examples that solve real-world problems that you can use as a reference for your own applications:
