Meeting the Challenge of OTA for Embedded Linux Systems

In this webinar we look at the challenges of managing the process of updating software on embedded Linux systems remotely – often referred to as an Over-The-Air or OTA update.

Key takeaways:
  • The necessity and challenges of updating devices in the field.
  • Security issues when dealing with remote device updates.
  • The importance of a robust implementation.
  • Additional security measures required for OTA.
  • Adding an OTA mechanism to an embedded Linux build system, like Yocto.

Toradex will demonstrate how this challenge can be solved in a real-world example, using the Torizon on hardware featuring NXP i.MX Applications Processors.

Webinar agenda:
  • Common OTA features.
  • Types of OTA - package-based, image-based.
  • Challenges of OTA - power-cut tolerance, rollbacks security.
  • Integrating with a build system.
  • Open Source solutions for OTA.
  • A Toradex solution.
