Automating and Managing an IoT Fleet Using Git
summary
Shows a full pipeline that automatically builds Debian-based OS images with EDI, runs hardware-in-the-loop testing, uploads Mender artifacts and dispatches OTA updates to a test device, then manages a staged fleet of seven devices (5 Raspberry Pis, 1 Compulab gateway, 1 Variscite SOM) from a git repository. Uses Ansible for per-device configuration, a self-hosted runner for CI, and branch-based staged rollouts for safe deployment, giving reproducible images, traceable commits, and automated A/B updates without manual flashing. GitOps and infrastructure as code drive the workflow.
