Answer: Micro kernel is a small software that helps in the the functioning of the operating system.

Exo-kernel is the tiny software made by MIT Parallel and Distributed Operating Systems group(DOS) for operating system.

Explanation: The difference between them are as follows:-

  • The functionality is low in exo-kernel as compared with the micro-kernel which has moderate mechanism.
  • Micro kernel is safer as compared to exo kernel . If there is an error due to function it does not impact on the kernel system, but exo kernel is less secure.
  • Exo kernel has the main function of maintaining the abstraction is not forced but there can be forced abstraction in the micro-kernel
