Here's one that is "production" ready: the Mirage-Firewall microkernel built using MirageOS and running on Qubes OS.[0] In general MirageOS allows you to:
> ... construct unikernels for secure, high-performance network applications across a variety of cloud computing and mobile platforms.
Code can be developed on a normal OS such as Linux or macOS, and then compiled into a fully-standalone, specialised unikernel that runs under a Xen or KVM hypervisor.[1]
