LinuxLink Desktop Edition: Comprehensive Embedded Linux Platform Backed by Expert Support

Innovative Architecture to Provide Developers with Maximum Flexibility and Control

desktop-based embedded Linux build system

LinuxLink Desktop Edition eliminates the learning time, complexity and risk in building and maintaining embedded Linux products and helps you bring your offerings to market faster.

Combined with our expert and responsive support, Desktop Edition provides an easy-to-use embedded Linux environment that handles the foundational details of installing and deploying applications across many different devices while you focus on building a differentiated offering.

Our subscription-based model provides maximum development flexibility at a price that fits even small teams’ budgets. Unlike other commercial Linux offerings that cost significantly more, LinuxLink provides a comprehensive Linux development framework without any vendor or version lock-in.

The Desktop Edition enables embedded Linux development that is customizable and repeatable within your own infrastructure. Desktop Edition subscribers benefit from:

Control

  • Reconfigure, patch and modify the Linux kernel
  • Use your own Linux kernel tree
  • Build a root filesystem (RFS) from source / the ground up — start small and add features that your product requires
  • Add, remove, modify and update packages in the RFS design

Flexibility

  • Integrate third-party software (even binaries)
  • Integrate your value-adding application
  • Optimize your Linux images for deployment on various media

Recency

  • Up-to-date
    • Regular, short release cycles
    • Immediate updates and fixes
    • Pick and choose updates/upgrades

Is your project already underway? With Desktop Edition, you can use what you already have, so you don’t have to start over.
