CDT.cloud Deployment-Server

Introduction

The CDT.cloud Deployment-Server is a service for embedded deployment environments.
It enables the whole development process for microcontrollers, including distributed development, remote deployment and monitoring. Additionally, the service allows for an overall administration of the devices and deployments with a user-centric dashboard.

Getting Started

We have implemented an auto-installation and start script here for a quick and easy start into the service.

For detailed instructions on how to start and adjust each service included in the CDT.cloud Deployment-Server please visit the individual packages.
