summary
Kairos converts the OS into an image that is built and delivered like a container, using container-backed updates to enforce immutability, make the root filesystem read-only, and enable atomic rollbacks so failed upgrades never leave devices half-broken. It supports bring-your-own enterprise OS (Red Hat, Ubuntu, SUSE) via a Dockerfile workflow, layered updates for bandwidth savings, measured/trusted boot and full disk encryption, and claims real results with a healthcare customer managing over 1,000 edge clusters while Spectro Cloud offers Pallet for multi-cluster management.
