Updating the Edge

" summary

Claim: edge devices update fast and safely if built with the right pipeline and tooling. A proof‑of‑concept uses a Raspberry Pi 3B+ strapped to an RC car and shows two workflows: quick app updates via k3s and Helm that deploy in 35 seconds with rollback, and full firmware updates via Mender and Yocto that stream to an inactive partition and roll back automatically in about five to ten minutes. Artifactory, X‑Ray, and CI pipelines scan, store caches, and orchestrate deployments across diverse hardware.
