About Embedded Linux
Developers are much more productive on Ubuntu than handcrafted embedded Linux. Sharing a platform shares the cost. Licensing is cheaper, updates more tested and maintenance shared. Familiar and widely used Ubuntu means easy CI/CD, better tools, faster updates and better kernels. Linux is not a differentiator. Use pre-enabled boards and focus on software unique to your story. Managing a familiar environment and platform is easier and cheaper than a specialist OS. Naturally. More Linux developers choose Ubuntu, so the talent pool is deeper and broader. Tap the biggest talent pool. Ubuntu is ahead of the pack by every measure. Productivity starts with reuse. Accelerate developers with the world’s largest package selection.
