Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.
Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.
Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.
The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

Learning objectives

Master remote updates for an embedded Linux fleet using RAUC, Mender and SWUpdate for professional-grade reliability.
Design an atomic dual-partition update strategy with automatic rollback.
Compare RAUC, Mender and SWUpdate on server integration and operational cost.
Sign and verify update packages to guarantee deployment integrity.
Manage migration of persistent data and configurations across versions.
Roll out updates progressively across a fleet and monitor success rates.
Perform power-cut tests during updates to validate robustness.

Program

Module 1Dual-Partition Architecture and RAUC (Yocto, RAUC)

Build an embedded Linux image with A/B partitioning from source. Configure RAUC for atomic updates. Run deployment commands on target hardware and simulate power-cut scenarios. Analyze automatic rollback logs and validate build reproducibility from the command line.

Module 2Mender Integration and Update Server (Mender, Docker)

Deploy a local Mender server and integrate the client on target devices. Generate and sign update artifacts. Manage staged deployments across multiple devices and monitor results. Test persistent configuration migration and recovery after abrupt interruption.

Module 3SWUpdate and Package Verification (SWUpdate, OpenSSL)

Implement SWUpdate with cryptographic package signing. Compare integration flows and operational costs with the other solutions. Perform fleet-wide update exercises and monitor success rates. Validate persistent data handling during version transitions.

Module 4Fleet Deployment and Robustness Testing (scripts, monitoring)

Orchestrate updates across a complete fleet with centralized monitoring. Execute power-cut tests during active updates. Optimize rollback and data-migration strategies. Document reproducible procedures for enterprise deployment.

Evaluation method

Methods, materials and delivery

The Training RAUC Mender SWUpdate - Embedded Linux Over-the-Air Updates program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Equipment required

For the smooth delivery of the Training RAUC Mender SWUpdate - Embedded Linux Over-the-Air Updates program, the following equipment is required:

Mac or PC computers, high-speed fiber internet, whiteboard or flipchart, projector or interactive touch screen (for remote sessions)
Training environments installed on workstations or accessible online
Course materials, hands-on exercises and complementary resources
Post-training access to materials and educational resources

For intra-company training on a site outside Learni, the client commits to providing all required teaching materials (computers, internet, etc.) for the smooth delivery of the program in line with the prerequisites in the communicated program.

Skills assessment methods

Assessment of skills acquired during the Training RAUC Mender SWUpdate - Embedded Linux Over-the-Air Updates program is performed through:

During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills

Program accessibility

Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.

Enrollment terms and lead times

Registration is possible up to 48 business hours before the start of training. All our programs are built for corporate L&D budgets and delivered onsite or remotely.

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.

Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

Live briefing on goals and team context.
Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.

Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
Program co-written then validated by your team.

Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which tools are used in RAUC Mender SWUpdate training?+

Hands-on work runs on yocto, RAUC, mender, docker, SWUpdate and openSSL. Those tools come from the RAUC Mender SWUpdate program itself, delivered in-person over 4 days, so participants practise on the stack they will use at work.

What can participants do after RAUC Mender SWUpdate training?+

They can master remote updates for an embedded Linux fleet using RAUC, Mender and SWUpdate for professional-grade reliability, design an atomic dual-partition update strategy with automatic rollback and compare RAUC, Mender and SWUpdate on server integration and operational cost. Those are the stated objectives of the RAUC Mender SWUpdate program at Advanced level, checked by the end-of-session assessment.

What does the RAUC Mender SWUpdate program cover, day by day?+

Day 1: Dual-Partition Architecture and RAUC (Yocto, RAUC). Day 2: Mender Integration and Update Server (Mender, Docker). Day 3: SWUpdate and Package Verification (SWUpdate, OpenSSL). Day 4: Fleet Deployment and Robustness Testing (scripts, monitoring). The RAUC Mender SWUpdate program runs over 4 days, delivered in-person.

How is RAUC Mender SWUpdate training assessed?+

Assessment relies on hands-on practice on real hardware with power-cut testing, technical comparison of the three tools on integration and cost criteria and delivery of a documented, reproducible deployment strategy. Learni issues a completion certificate together with the individual assessment report at the end of the RAUC Mender SWUpdate program, which an L&D team can file as evidence.

How much does RAUC Mender SWUpdate training cost per participant?+

RAUC Mender SWUpdate training is priced on quote. The amount depends on headcount, format and how far the syllabus is tailored to your team. A detailed quote is sent within one business day, and team pricing covers the whole group from the second participant.
