Introducing Component Orchestration in Mender

Chris | Mender

Today, Mender introduces component orchestration for complex, interconnected systems, marking a significant step forward in software update management. Manufacturers can now coordinate software updates, manage dependencies, and define desired software configurations across entire products—not just individual devices.

As connected products bring together multiple processors, microcontrollers, operating systems, and applications, keeping software components in sync is becoming increasingly challenging. Northern.tech's latest research found that 90% of OEMs manage products containing multiple devices or internal components, underscoring the growing need for coordinated, system-level software management.

Manage the entire software system

With component orchestration in Mender, manufacturers can:

  • Manage software across the entire product, coordinating updates across interconnected processors, microcontrollers, operating systems, and applications.

  • Simplify complex software management by defining desired software configurations and coordinating dependencies and update sequences.

  • Reduce operational risk by helping maintain compatible software configurations across interconnected components throughout the product lifecycle.

With component orchestration, Mender brings software update management to the entire connected product, helping manufacturers simplify complexity and maintain product integrity throughout the product lifecycle.
