Over-the-Air Updates and Fleet Management at Scale

Embedded Artistry and Memfault are joining forces to host a quarterly embedded discussion panel that is focused on the technical aspects of building embedded systems at scale. We will be featuring guest panel members who are at the cutting edge of embedded development. Our goal is to spread beneficial techniques and practices throughout the industry.

Our fourth event is focused on Over-the-Air Updates and Fleet Management at Scale. This discussion will be held on 30 March at 0900 PST. For this discussion, Phillip and Tyler will be joined by David Shoemaker, Software Engineer at Tesla.

The number of IoT devices across the globe is increasing year over year, each becoming more advanced. As a firmware engineer, it is critical for you to have visibility into your fleets to effectively manage your embedded devices and successfully push over-the-air (OTA) updates. Your customers will remain happy if their devices are consistently being updated with bug fixes or new features.

Join this panel discussion with embedded engineering experts and learn how they have implemented OTA firmware updates when building hardware and how they’ve managed fleets at scale. They’ll share some best practices they’ve learned over the years that you can use for your next device firmware update.

You can sign up for the live event and find the recording on this page!
