NixOS on ARM: Rock 5 B

We currently have a couple of projects that use the Radxa Rock 5B SBC as base platform. It's a nice ARM board based on the Rockchip RK3588. Upstream support for the CPU has improved quite a bit during the course of 2024, making it a solid choice for ARM PoCs and other projects. Read on to discover how to run NixOS on the board.

Case Study: Cyberus Hypervisor in secunet medical connect

secunet uses Cyberus Hypervisor for their new medical connect Edge-Gateway-Platform. By relying on Cyberus’ product, service, and expertise for the medical connect product and the internal Software Factory and Platform Strategy, the secunet product team was able to ship 20% faster. They also provided more value to their customers with a smaller platform footprint.
