<p>Like most developers, I'm against my will a volunteer system administrator. I take care of my personal and professional notebooks. I also maintain a powerful build server at home and a remote VPS hosting my blog. From times to times I even use a single board computer to host some services.</p> <p>A few years ago, all those machines ran different, dedicated Linux distributions: Ubuntu, ArchLinux, Debian, Raspbian, making the maintenance a nightmare. That was before diving into GNU Guix.</p> ...

<p>Imagine you're an engineer at an ODM or OEM working on a IoT product for the smarthome - from a simple thermostat to security alarms, from set top boxes to internet gateways.</p> <p>Linux is a fairly obvious choice to build these product that have greater than 128MB of RAM and storage. On resource-constrained devices, an RTOS such as Zephyr is able to even run on devices with as little as a few hundred KB of RAM and storage.</p> <p>However, the kernel is a small part of the device's software ...
