Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for accelerating file I/O offload for a unikernel. The method, performed by the apparatus and server for accelerating file I/O offload for the unikernel, includes; executing, by the apparatus, an application in the unikernal and calling, by the thread of the application, a file I/O function; generating, by the unikernal, a file I/O offload request using the file I/O function; transmitting, by the unikernal, the file I/O offload request to Linux of the server; receiving, by Linux, the file offload request from the thread of the unikernel and processing, by Linux, the file I/O offload request; transmitting, by Linux, a file FO offload result for the file I/O I/O offload request to the unikernel; and delivering the file I/O offload result to the thread of the application.
