Resiliency at the Edge - Automated Health Checks and Recovery for Remote Devices

Explore the critical aspects of maintaining operational efficiency for edge devices in remote locations through this DevConf.CZ 2023 conference talk. Delve into the greenboot project, a framework designed to ensure smooth device operation with minimal hands-on maintenance. Learn how greenboot performs health checks during the startup process, verifying the functionality of applications, services, and programs running on the operating system. Discover the framework's ability to revert the OS to a previous working state if necessary. Gain insights into writing effective health checks, witness a practical demonstration of greenboot in action, and explore the project's future roadmap. Equip yourself with knowledge to enhance resiliency and reduce costly maintenance for edge devices in challenging environments.
