Retail operations cannot afford downtime. When systems fail, sales are lost, customers are frustrated, and operations halt. Any technology platform serving the retail industry must ensure business continuity. Wind River’s eLxr Pro and partners such as Avassa can ensure always-on operations by providing:

• Enterprise-grade reliability: The open source eLxr Linux distribution boasts enhanced security with ongoing monitoring and compliance certifications, performance optimizations for cloud-to-edge and mission-critical workloads, and scalability across diverse infrastructure from data centers to edge devices.
• Automated failover and recovery: Intelligent systems detect and resolve issues before they impact operations.
• Real-time monitoring: Proactive system health management prevents problems before they occur. Avassa Edge Platform, integrated with Wind River Linux and eLxr Pro, reduces complexity for retailers that manage distributed systems.

Managing thousands of distributed devices, applications, and systems across multiple store locations drains resources. Retailers need automated, centralized lifecycle management.

Minimize operational complexity using automation and centralized management. With Cloud Platform, eLxr Pro, and management tools such as Wind River Conductor and monitoring tools such as Analytics, retailers get:

• Zero-touch automation: Streamline deployments, updates, and maintenance across all store locations without requiring onsite IT staff.
• Centralized management: Avassa Control Tower provides complete visibility and control over edge devices and applications from a single interface.
• Cost optimization: Automated operations lower costs by enabling efficient deployments.
