Baylibre announces partnership with Mender.io to deliver Secure OTA updates to the Internet of Things

BayLibre is delighted to announce a partnership with Mender.io to bring secure over-the-air (SOTA) updates to our customers & their products. Mender.io SOTA ensures that every IoT device is patched, protected, and running with the latest fixes. Mender has become a core component for many of our Linux projects, including our AIoT Linux SDK developed in partnership with MediaTek.

Secure and frequent OTA updates have become table stakes for IoT and embedded systems. BayLibre required a solution that would be flexible and extensible enough to integrate with systems built for different purposes. Our customers required an advanced solution that struck a balance between turnkey readiness and configurability. Mender.io offers multiple levels of security paired with a turn-key backend hosting solution at affordable prices. Above all else, Mender.io delivers a reliable service that we feel confident recommending to our partners & customers.

“BayLibre has successfully deployed Mender.io SOTA in the field across our customer base and the diverse set of devices that we help our customers build”, said Michael Turquette, CEO at BayLibre. “In addition to the flexibility and security of Mender’s solution, we have seen a strong customer response to the commercial hosting solution provided by Mender. Of course, customers have the choice to host the SOTA back-end themselves or through Mender.io, and we’ve seen great success for customers that trust the team at Mender with their SOTA hosting needs.”
