What is the difference between microkernel and macro kernel?

Detailed Explanation
  • Micro-Kernel : A micro-kernel is a minimal operating system that performs only the essential functions of an operating system. All other operating system functions are performed by system processes.
  • Monolithic : A monolithic operating system is one where all operating system code is in a single executable image and all operating system code runs in system mode.
