Toradex spins a distro for embedded Linux newbies



Toradex’s “Torizon” embedded Linux distro is built on Foundries.io’s Linux microPlatforms and aimed at Windows migrants and other Linux newcomers. It features Visual Studio integration, security features, OTA updates, and an optional Docker runtime.
Traditionally, embedded Linux distros launched by embedded board developers are hardened stacks designed for real-time Linux. Lately, however, we’ve seen some distros that aim to ease the embedded learning curve. Siemens, for example, released a version of Mentor Embedded Linux (MEL) that replaces Yocto Project code with a binary implementation of Debian for easier setup. Now, Swiss embedded vendor Toradex is pairing its Arm-based compute modules with a Torizon distribution that targets former Windows developers looking to switch to Linux.
