To Boldly go Where Linux Cannot with Zephyr and Eclipse IoT
summary
Zephyr targets tiny devices (tens of MHz, tens of KB RAM) and runs Bluetooth LE/mesh and a native network stack so Linux won’t fit but Zephyr does. Use Eclipse MRAA/UPM to read I²C sensors in roughly five lines of code, use Eclipse Wakaama LWM2M (C) or Java LWM2M clients plus DTLS for device management, and use hawkBit for scalable OTA updates. Eclipse survey had ~1,700 respondents and shows Zephyr adoption holding around 3% while no-OS declines.
