What to consider when choosing an Enterprise Linux for Embedded Applications

Embedded device manufactures have two types of operating systems available today when choosing embedded Linux: (1) Enterprise-class solutions that have longer release cycles, can be easier to adopt and use, and are full-featured, but are not very customizable. (2) Embedded Linux solutions, like the Yocto Project, often have frequent release cycles and are highly customizable. However, many developers are looking for something different. They want the stability, ease of use, and extensive features of an enterprise-class OS, but also need the performance, customizability, and smaller footprint of an embedded OS.

Mentor Embedded Linux Omni OS, based on Debian, provides the key benefits of an enterprise-class Linux distribution with that of an embedded OS. This webinar will help embedded device manufacturers determine when an Enterprise-class embedded Linux distribution is the best solution and how it can save you time and money.
