Abstract
An avionics electronic computer with a virtual machine management hypervisor, and an aircraft comprising such a computer. This avionics electronic computer on board an aircraft comprises a group of computing electronic card(s) (25) having computing resources and storage resources (40); a set of microservices executed independently of each other, with at least a part of the resources; a set of software application(s) to call one or more of the microservices; and a set of orchestrator(s) (55, 56) to implement the set of microservices by allocating at least a part of the resources.The orchestrator set includes several orchestrators (55, 56), and the computing card group comprises at least two virtual machines (50) and a virtual machine management hypervisor (45), common to the computing card group and configured to distribute at least some of the resources among the virtual machines (50), each hosting one of the orchestrators and making its resources available to that orchestrator. See Figure 2 for abbreviations.
