• How popular is balenaOS and balenaCloud?

  We were running balenaOS on several thousand customer devices in field, all managed through balenaCloud. It worked fine and the remote capabilities are extremely useful, but we eventually transitioned the entire fleet to Mender instead. There were several reasons for the transition:.

• Ubuntu Core 22 is now available – optimised for IoT and embedded devices

  I've never used anything in the product space, but I've read through some of the docs because IoT deployment interests me in the context of most network devices having terrible deployment and update strategies. My favorite sales pitch was always Mender (https://mender.io) because it can be as simple as .img files and slice based booting. Unfortunately they changed their pricing a couple years ago and went from a... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• 6 Trending Topics Every Embedded Learner Must Know in 2022

  From what has been stated thus far, it becomes obvious that most of the opportunities would be in enabling containers for embedded targets.

• Finding a good bare-metal/IoT management solution for a hobbyist and clearing up my mental model.

  So far I've come across checkmk, which seems like an amazing tool for monitoring, but as far as I'm aware, it's only for that. You can't actually affect your systems with it. Then I tried openBalena, which seems really interesting, as it allows for pre-baking images, and deploying your apps inside of containers, but for monitoring it needs another solution to complement it, and I don't see how you can actually...

• Docker IoT image deployment alternative to balena cloud

  I was wondering if there are alternatives out there which are less expensive (I think mender might be one), or even open-source variants with a nice UI. Also, I was wondering if Google Cloud offers a similar service? I know IoT Core which, as it seems, is just an MQTT communication library and not capable of deploying containers.
