Introduction

Hyperion provides a robust framework for building custom Linux images. It leverages the OCI (Open Container Initiative) standards to ensure compatibility and ease of use. With Hyperion, developers can create atomic, image-based operating systems that are both flexible and secure.

Features

• Atomic Builds: Create images that are built atomically, ensuring that the entire image is either fully built or not built at all.
• Custom Images: Tailor your Linux images to fit your specific needs, whether for development, testing, or production.
• OCI Compliance: Follow OCI standards to ensure compatibility across different platforms and environments.
• Immutable Infrastructure: Deploy immutable images that do not change after they are created, enhancing security and stability.
