    Yocto/OE BSP layer for the Raspberry Pi boards

  • Been there. You don't want alpine or debian. Good gpos, but what you want is Yocto, which will let you build exactly and only what you need piece by piece including only the kernel modules for your hardware, the exact applications you use and no extras, and with a little extra tweaking, you can wire in Mender for ota updates and the ability to push custom images to clients that need specialization, or even fully unlocked images for customers that need it, plus if you're using an SD card, you can send users recovery drives instead of shipping full devices or let them build their own images without your proprietary code

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
