Description

Utilize our foundational tools to create your own device deployment and management server, whether you're handling a single device or scaling up to a million. Customize openBalena to meet your specific requirements and seamlessly execute software updates on your devices with just one command. Leverage the advantages of virtualization, specifically tailored for edge computing, and maintain access to your devices no matter their network conditions. Onboarding new devices into your fleet is straightforward and efficient. OpenBalena serves as a comprehensive platform for the deployment and oversight of connected devices. Each device operates on balenaOS, an operating system crafted for container execution on IoT hardware, and is overseen using the balena CLI, which facilitates the configuration of application containers, implementation of updates, monitoring of status, and examination of logs. The backend services of OpenBalena, built from proven components that have been utilized in balenaCloud for years, not only store device data securely but also enable remote management through an integrated VPN service and optimize the distribution of container images across your devices. This robust infrastructure ensures that you can efficiently manage your entire fleet with ease and confidence.

Description

The hybrid edgeCloud platform allows various smart devices, ranging from smartphones to IoT gadgets, to function as cloud servers when necessary. The edgeEngine serves as a downloadable software that empowers these devices to operate as cloud servers under suitable conditions. This versatile engine is compatible with any smart device, regardless of its operating system or network, and integrates seamlessly with any cloud infrastructure. In contrast to traditional backend development, which often demands significant time and financial resources for server maintenance and scaling, mimik offers a serverless environment tailored for edge microservices, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. By utilizing the edgeEngine, users can enhance any smart device with basic computing capabilities—such as smartphones, PCs, set-top boxes, residential and IoT gateways, game consoles, smart TVs, drones, robots, infotainment systems in cars, and industrial sensors—with server functionality. Furthermore, developers have the flexibility to either create and deploy custom edge microservices or take advantage of mimik’s pre-built, field-proven microservices to introduce innovative solutions or modernize existing applications. This capability not only streamlines the development process but also significantly reduces the barriers to implementing cutting-edge technology.
