So what's an UserApp?

berofix is able to provide additional services beside its gateway functionality. This is made possible through the berofix application framework, an easy to use solution that lets developers create applications to be run on the embedded berofix plattform.

Sample applications like the asterisk telephony framework are provided by beroNet to show how powerful such apps can be.

Appliance Ecosystem

The beroNet Appliance V2 runs a xen-based hypervisor. The beroNet GUI allows to create and manage VMS from a webbrowser. The beroNet Appliance OS consumes very little of the Appliances' ressources and leaves most ressources to the VMs.

The beroNet GUI allows also to download VM - Apps and ISO files from the beroNet market and from trusted markets of beroNet's technology partners.

A new beroNet technology partner that wants to create his own market and make it a beroNet trusted market should have a defined filesystem layout and a json file describing his market and his apps. For more infos see:
