Zephyr Project: An RTOS to Change the Face of IoT

Zephyr Project: An RTOS to Change the Face of IoT - Geoff Thorpe, NXP Semiconductor

An increasing number of developers need a scalable, real­-time operating system designed specifically for small­ footprint IoT devices. It needs to be easy to use, and guided by the developers using it. An open source RTOS can't just be called "open" ­ it must live and breathe "the open source way." The Zephyr Project offers just that. Launched in partnership with the Linux Foundation, the Zephyr project is a truly open source solution focused on empowering community development. This talk will provide some provocative insights into IoT Security generally, as well as outlining the role the Zephyr project has to play.
