Abstract
A system may include an application server and one or more tenants served by the application server. The application server may host a virtual machine with multiple isolated sub-environments. Each tenant of the application server may request to run a program in a tenant-specific sub-environment of the virtual machine. The sub-environments may be configured so the execution of one tenant's code does not affect execution of another tenant's code or the hosting virtual machine, for example, by considering the resources used to execute the code. The application server may implement techniques to securely execute 'untrusted' code, programmed using one or more different programming languages, in the sub-environments by enforcing resource restrictions and restricting the sub-environments from accessing the host's local file system. In this way, one tenant's code does not negatively impact execution of another tenant's code by using too many resources of the virtual machine.
