Does the world need another open source operating system for the internet of things? I wonder if creating a new one was really necessary or if they could have built on top of one that already exists.
While I can't say I know intimately all the problems that need to be solved for IoT to responsibly reach mass consumption, but I'm pretty sure having an operating system wasn't the problem. Maybe this is just an enterprise cash grab?
- jaboutboul 9y agoIt's definitely not a cash grab as the project is open source. There are many problems in this space that cannot be served using current solution, especially in environments that are super resource constrained. For example, this is made to run on a very small footprint of RAM, even smaller than what an embedded Linux distro would use.
