louis_w_gk··on Show HN: Distr 2.0 – A year of learning how to ship to customer environments
We already have a customer portal where you can display any information you want for your customers. We also provide container and deployment logs, as well as alerts in the platform, so you can immediately see if an update failed and what went wrong. Release notes are already on our roadmap, and a lightweight issue tracker has also been requested.

Scheduled updates are currently not on the roadmap, but we’d be happy to scope that feature together and add it.

I think Distr could be a great fit. If you’re interested, I’m happy to walk you through the platform in a quick demo: https://cal.glasskube.com/team/gk/distr-demo

Distr is a modern Open Source alternative to Replicated. We have a more in-depth comparison over here https://distr.sh/compare/replicated/. If you have any questions, I’m happy to help.

I wasn’t aware of OpenBalena before, but at first glance, it looks like a similar in concept. However, it seems focused solely on IoT and only supports Docker, whereas Distr is also designed for Kubernetes distribution. Happy to take a deeper look and provide a more detailed comparison if you're interested!
