Firmware OTA
Push updates during the shift. Roll back before anyone notices.
Staged rollouts let you validate firmware changes on a small batch before committing the whole fleet. Automatic rollback kicks in if failures exceed your threshold.

Staged rollouts with automatic protection
5%
Canary batch
A small pilot group confirms firmware stability before any broader rollout. If failure rate exceeds threshold, rollback triggers automatically.
20%
Extended validation
A wider sample across different fleet groups. Iotpathway monitors ACK rates and device health during this stage before approving full rollout.
100%
Full fleet
Once stages 1 and 2 pass, the remaining devices are updated. The process runs in the background — no maintenance window required.
Automatic rollback
- Set a failure threshold — e.g., if more than 3% of devices in a stage fail, roll back automatically
- Rollback is non-disruptive — devices continue on previous firmware
- Failure cause logged for review before retry
Per-device version history
- Full version history per device: current, previous, and last 5 deployments
- ACK log with timestamps for every update event
- Export for compliance and maintenance reporting
Scheduling options
- Schedule updates for low-traffic windows without stopping the line
- Live-push mode for security patches that can't wait
- Blackout windows: define periods where no updates should run
Delta updates
- Only push the diff between firmware versions
- Reduces bandwidth use significantly on constrained networks
- Critical for remote and cellular-connected facilities
No more 2 AM maintenance windows
