Architecture

TorizonCore

Torizon is built as a modular system. It can be easily adjusted to your needs without the learning curve of the Yocto Project, and every part is updatable to keep your system secure. TorizonCore is a lightweight base system that contains the Linux Kernel and basic services, such as an over-the-air client and an optional container runtime. TorizonCore is free open-source software.

TorizonCore runs on Toradex SoMs, while the Torizon platform comprises not only TorizonCore and software that run on top of it, but also cloud hosted services and any other parts of Torizon that are not directly run on Toradex hardware.

Built with OpenEmbedded/Yocto

Optional docker container runtime

Free Open-source Software

Support for mainline and downstream kernels

Based on Linux microPlatform

Application Containerization

Software containers are a popular concept in the cloud computing field. A container contains applications and required software packages while sharing the kernel with the rest of the system. This allows for simpler application deployment and updatability while increasing security.

Simpler over-the-air updates

Increased security

Small resource footprint compared to virtual machines

Access to hardware acceleration

Out-of-the-box Experience

From boot-up to proof of concept in no time

With Torizon, you can get started right away. Torizon provides a Debian container, including Apt Package Manager. This setup is ideal for your first steps, as it allows you to download and try a large number of deb packages. Additionally, Toradex will also provide a wide range of development tools for pin configuration, display settings, performance monitoring and more. All tools are equipped with both local and web-based remote UIs.
