Description
LynxOS has been utilized in countless embedded devices, demonstrating dependable performance for over three decades in various safety and security-sensitive markets. This operating system offers a proven method for running applications within a Unix-like environment, where a unified kernel manages all resources and application services, making it particularly effective for hardware designs that were developed before the advent of virtualization. We aim to ensure our customers purchase only what is necessary for their specific needs. While real-time operating systems (RTOS) can deliver significant advantages, they are not essential for every embedded system configuration. For a more extensive overview of our resources related to RTOS, we invite you to explore our Embedded Systems Learning Center, which provides valuable information to assist you in making informed software purchasing choices as you design or enhance your system and evaluate potential real-time platform vendors. Moreover, this center is a great resource to help you understand the trade-offs and benefits associated with various embedded system approaches.
Description
The advent of containers is set to transform the landscape of connected devices, with balenaOS standing out as the premier solution for their deployment. Designed to endure challenging networking scenarios and sudden power losses, it is a stripped-down version of Linux that includes only the essential services for running Docker efficiently on embedded hardware. Built on the foundation of Yocto Linux, it allows for seamless adaptation across a wide range of device types and CPU architectures. The project is actively maintained in a transparent manner, fostering a community that is encouraged to contribute. In our initiative to create balenaCloud—a platform that integrates modern software development tools with connected hardware—we began by adapting Docker for ARM processors in 2013. This experience highlighted the necessity for a dedicated operating system tailored to this specific use case: a lightweight OS perfectly suited for executing containers on embedded devices. Furthermore, this focus on optimization ensures that developers can maximize the potential of their connected solutions.
