NanoVMs is the company while Nanos is the kernel.

I respect the developers at ScyllaDB (formerly Cloudius Systems) who created OSv quite a lot and find them very talented.

There are some fairly major technical differences on implementation that stem from both a different time period and (time/money) resource constraints, however, yes the end goals are fairly similar.

I'd say it's still a bit early to try and compare the two technically though since we have many architectural projects on our roadmap that are not yet in. I will say from a product/company standpoint we have paid kernel engineers working on this currently and some of our customers are extremely large organizations.

I know this is probably not the answer you were looking for but it's just kinda early to compare.
