Microkernels

Microkernels is a kernel design approach in operating systems wherein the minimal essential services, such as inter-process communication and basic scheduling, are implemented in kernel space, while all other operating system services run as user-level processes, thereby distinguishing it from monolithic and hybrid kernel architectures.
