Simplifying edge app delivery: one workflow, thousands of devices

What if you could manage thousands of edge devices with the same declarative GitOps workflow you use for the cloud?

Simplifying edge app delivery: one workflow, thousands of devices
#1about 2 minutes

Common challenges of deploying applications at the edge

Edge deployments face unique problems like resource constraints, flaky networks, lack of onsite staff, and security risks.

#2about 1 minute

Introducing Flight Control for simplified edge management

Flight Control is a new open-source project that uses a declarative, agent-based model to simplify edge application management.

#3about 2 minutes

Using BootC to build Linux system images like containers

BootC allows you to build and manage immutable Linux system images using familiar container tools and workflows like Dockerfiles.

#4about 2 minutes

Automating secure device onboarding and deployment

Flight Control uses the FDO specification for zero-touch provisioning and signed images to ensure a secure software supply chain.

#5about 1 minute

Preventing configuration drift with a declarative model

A declarative policy model ensures that all devices in a fleet automatically converge to the desired state, eliminating configuration drift.

#6about 2 minutes

Implementing safe atomic updates and automated rollbacks

BootC enables atomic, all-or-nothing updates by rebooting into a new image, with automated health checks and rollbacks for reliability.

#7about 1 minute

Gaining centralized observability for your edge fleet

Integrate edge devices into centralized monitoring systems by exposing metrics, logs, and alerts in standard formats like Prometheus.

#8about 2 minutes

Integrating edge management with enterprise systems

The pluggable architecture of Flight Control allows for seamless integration with existing enterprise authentication, authorization, and configuration systems.

#9about 1 minute

Creating a unified developer experience for the edge

An abstraction layer provides developers with a Kubernetes-like experience for managing edge devices, bridging skill gaps between teams.

#10about 3 minutes

Adopting a unified GitOps workflow for all infrastructure

Manage your entire infrastructure, from Kubernetes workloads to edge devices, declaratively from Git for a consistent and automated workflow.
