With Azure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows (EFLOW) developers run containerized Linux workloads alongside Windows applications. Microsoft is now giving developers the ability to build with both Windows IoT and Linux, together on a single hardware. Developers no longer need to choose between Windows or Linux – they can leverage the best of both platforms. While Windows IoT offers many advantages, Linux brings a wide developer ecosystem and an extensive portfolio of pre-validated modules for AI. Edge devices in manufacturing, retail, healthcare, signage, and transportation rely on Windows IoT operating systems due to long-term support, lock-down capabilities, and advanced security features. Leverage the best of Windows IoT and Linux on a single hardware. Features by IoT editionĪzure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows (EFLOW) Countless security updates and bug fixes have made it incredibly stable and straightforward to integrate. The Windows 10 platform has been deployed in millions of devices and is tested and proven. The best fit Microsoft OS for industrial devices designed in 20 is Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021. Microsoft is committed to providing bug fixes and security patches for each LTSC release during the extended LTSC servicing lifecycle.Ĭomparing Windows 11 IoT and Windows 10 IoT Operating Systems Feature updates are offered in new LTSC releases every 2–3 years instead of every 6 months, and organizations can choose to install them as in-place upgrades, or even skip releases. The Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC version will continue to have a 10-year support lifecycle, consistent with existing LTSC versions. Features from Windows 10 that could be updated with new functionality, including Cortana, Edge, and all in-box Universal Windows apps, are also not included. With the LTSC (Long term servicing channel) servicing model, customers can delay receiving feature updates and instead only receive monthly quality updates on devices. Users have the ability to run Linux workloads via Linux Containers with Azure IoT Edge on Windows. These include silicon support expansion, reduction of up to 40 % in the size of the operating system, and over-the-air (OTA) updates. Released in Fall 2021, Windows IoT Enterprise 2021 has many new features and product enhancements. Microsoft continues the Windows IoT Enterprise roadmap with their next release.
