| Fact | Daytona | microsandbox |
|---|---|---|
| Isolation | Daytona describes separated and isolated runtime protection for executing AI-generated code. | Each sandbox is a microVM with its own Linux kernel, filesystem, and network boundary, rather than a container sharing the host kernel. |
| Network controls | Sandbox network controls include IPv4 CIDR allow lists, domain allow lists, block-all outbound traffic, and chained outbound proxies. | By default, sandboxes can reach the public internet while private, host-local, link-local, and metadata destinations are blocked; egress can be allowlisted or disabled. |
