Key New Features
Include Packages from Multiple Repositories :
Seamlessly integrate packages from multiple repositories into your target images, supporting both RPM and Debian package formats. This flexibility allows you to leverage diverse software ecosystems within a single, unified workflow.
Package Dependency Visualization:
Gain unprecedented insight into your package relationships with our new graphical dependency visualization tool. Navigate complex package dependencies through intuitive graph charts directly in the GUI, making troubleshooting and optimization more efficient than ever.
Setting Pre-Deployment Configuration:
Streamline your deployment process by embedding configuration settings/binaries directly into target images. Configure system settings, application parameters, and deployment-specific configurations before image boot, ensuring your systems are deployment-ready from first startup.
Intel Open Edge Platform Integration:
Effortlessly incorporate Intel's Open Edge Platform components and AI libraries into your target images. This native integration simplifies the process of building AI-enabled edge solutions with Intel's optimized software stack.
Embedded Software Bill of Materials (SBOM):
Enhance security and compliance with automatic SBOM generation and embedding. Each target image now includes a comprehensive software bill of materials, providing complete visibility into all components for security auditing and compliance requirements.
EMF-Compatible Image Composition:
Expand your deployment options with support for EMF-compatible Ubuntu and EMT OS image generation. This capability ensures broader compatibility across diverse edge computing environments and deployment scenarios.
