What is balenaOS?

The emergence of container technology is poised to revolutionize the realm of connected devices, with balenaOS emerging as the leading choice for their implementation. It is crafted to withstand difficult networking conditions and unexpected power interruptions, serving as a minimalist version of Linux that incorporates only the vital services required for efficient Docker operation on embedded systems. Leveraging Yocto Linux as its base, balenaOS supports smooth customization across various device types and CPU architectures. The project benefits from active maintenance and transparency, encouraging community involvement and contributions. Our journey began in 2013 with the development of balenaCloud, a platform that merges contemporary software development tools with connected hardware, where we adapted Docker for ARM processors. This venture underscored the need for a specially designed operating system aimed at this niche: an optimized, lightweight OS that is ideally suited for running containers on embedded devices. Additionally, this emphasis on efficiency empowers developers to fully harness the capabilities of their innovative connected solutions while paving the way for future advancements in device management. The commitment to continuous improvement ensures that balenaOS remains at the forefront of technology in this rapidly evolving field.
