Image building and delivery
A custom system is ultimately delivered as a dedicated system image. JelinaOS provides a complete build, validation, and batch delivery workflow that takes customization projects from functional prototypes to scalable delivery.
Image building
Section titled “Image building”Custom images are generated in a unified build framework:
- Reproducible configuration: System configuration is declarative; the same configuration produces consistent images for predictable delivery.
- Standardized build environments: Builds run in a standard environment without depending on individual development machines, supporting team collaboration.
- Traceable versions: Each image corresponds to a defined system version and customization configuration for issue investigation.
Image validation
Section titled “Image validation”Complete layered validation before delivery:
| Validation | Scope |
|---|---|
| Functional validation | Boot, peripherals, preinstalled applications, networking, and updates |
| Stability validation | Long-term operation, fault recovery, and disaster recovery mechanisms |
| Upgrade validation | System updates, incremental updates, and rollback |
| Batch sampling | Consistency across multiple devices |
Delivery methods
Section titled “Delivery methods”| Method | Use case |
|---|---|
| Preinstallation | Devices ship with the custom system installed and ready to use |
| Image delivery | Custom images are flashed on site or on the production line |
| Cloud distribution | Connect to JelinaCloud for batch delivery through images and configuration |
After delivery
Section titled “After delivery”- Update support: Custom systems enter version management and continue receiving important updates and security patches.
- Maintenance documentation: Custom configuration descriptions and maintenance guidance accompany delivery.
- Long-term support: Custom projects follow the same long-term support policy as standard products.
