What is AWS Nitro Enclaves
AWS Nitro Enclaves is an isolated compute environment running beside the EC2 instance. It uses the CPU and memory resources from your EC2 instance, but it is isolated from the instance on the hypervisor level so that your instance cannot access the enclave even on the OS-level. The only way you can communicate with the enclave is through the vsock channel.
