Wind River Linux empowers you to develop, deploy, and operate embedded solutions that are robust, reliable, & secure.

Open source technology is critical to accelerating software development, and at least 80% of modern applications have open source and third-party software components (Synopsys 2021).

Knowing what's in your code is mission critical. Learn how to maximize development velocity and quality while managing risk.

A device designer faces many choices when determining how to architect an embedded solution. The Linux operating system offers faster innovation with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, high levels of security, standards that are common across all industries, flexibility and adaptability for many use cases, and cloud-native and DevOps support.

But it doesn’t come without challenges. Is it worth it to invest in supporting Linux for several years? What about the number of common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs) that come up constantly throughout the product lifecycle?

Learn how purpose-built embedded Linux distributions can provide the smaller footprint, longer support lifecycle, and high reliability necessary for the intelligent edge.

Embedded Linux is fueling the new connected intelligent systems paradigm. The embedded software market is estimated to grow at 7% CAGR during 2021–2027, with a projected value of $21.5 billion in 2027 (Global Market Insights).

Don’t miss out on how to develop, deploy, and service your intelligent edge Linux solutions.

There will be an estimated 42 billion connected devices by 2025 (IDC), and each represents a point of entry that can be exploited by a cyberattack. Securing your device or system is a complete-lifecycle effort.

Learn why proactive embedded device vulnerability monitoring is a must in today’s interconnected world.

Yocto Project–based Linux will be the OS of choice in embedded's migration to open source over the next three years in all markets (VDC Research, May 2020).

Quality and speed will be must-haves. Success will mean focusing on what you do best and leaving the undifferentiating OS design, development, and maintenance to your embedded Linux service provider.

Learn when and why to partner on the design, development, and maintenance of Linux technology, and what makes Wind River® unique in Linux lifecycle management.

In the embedded industry, the lifecycle of a Linux product can last 5, 10, or even 15 years or more, so the decisions you make now and along the way will impact speed, quality, and resources for years to come. They can also create technical debt and directly impact future scalability, profitability, and the overall success of your project.

This e-book walks readers through the Linux Decision Points journey and touches on key considerations throughout development. Questions to consider include: What is your business strategy for open source leadership? Unique code contribution? Delivering a service? Or building an innovative product?

The explosive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) is just one of several trends that is fueling the demand for intelligent devices at the edge. Increasingly, embedded devices use Linux to leverage libraries and code as well as Linux OS expertise to deliver functionality faster, simplify ongoing maintenance, and provide the most flexibility and performance for embedded device developers.

This e-book looks at the various approaches to providing both Linux and a build environment for embedded devices and offers best practices on how organizations can accelerate development while reducing overall project cost throughout the entire device lifecycle.
