Elektra  0.9.10
Who uses Elektra?

Elektra has three different main targets.

Desktop

Elektra allows applications to read and write from a global configuration tree. We miss a specification (schema) so that these configuration values can be shared (integrated).

Embedded

Elektra is on the frontier for embedded systems because of its tiny core and the many possibilities with its plugins.

Known users:

  • OpenWRT (distribution)
  • Broadcom (blue-ray devices)
  • Kapsch (cameras)
  • Toshiba (TVs)

Server

Elektra is ideal suited for a local configuration storage by mounting existing configuration files into the global tree. Nodes using Elektra can be connected by already existing configuration management tools.
