WebAssembly from Cloud to Tiny Edge — A Two-Part Blog Series by Atym CTO Stephen Berard In his latest two-part blog series, our CTO Stephen Berard explores how #WebAssembly (#Wasm) is transforming the development of secure, portable applications across the entire compute spectrum—from the cloud to resource-constrained embedded systems. Part 1 highlights: • Why Wasm is ideal for cross-platform execution • Eliminating the need to rewrite apps for every device • The benefits of sandboxing and speed in secure environments Part 2 highlights: • Building a single app to run on any CPU architecture • How Wasm simplifies the path to remote debugging and updates • Real-world implications for performance, security, and scalability At Atym, we’re harnessing the power of Wasm-based containerization to address real-world challenges in embedded device development.

Leveraging WebAssembly to enable any developer to deploy, manage and secure containers on resource-constrained devices.
About us
Atym leverages WebAssembly to bring OCI-like app containerization and cloud development principles to the billions of constrained edge devices that don't have the resources to support a Linux-based container runtime like Docker. Our open platform helps developers build modular software and embed AI in connected products such as sensors, cameras, industrial controllers, drones, robots, EV chargers and appliances, while improving their security posture and reducing overall engineering friction and cost.

We appreciate STMicroelectronics' investment in The Zephyr Project. This makes it easy to bring up the Atym container runtime on STM32 boards for our customers! 🚀 #WebAssembly + #ZephyrRTOS + #STM32 = 🔥 Nicolas Fillon Brian Smith
STMicroelectronics STM32 and Zephyr! All our STM32 devices are available in Zephyr framework, with more than 180 boards supported and Zephyr drivers ported on top of STM32Cube HAL or LL. Have you tried running Zephyr on STM32? what are your expectations from us regarding Zephyr? and what is missing? Thank you. The Zephyr Project #stm32 #zephyr

At Atym, we're leveraging #WebAssembly to bring the #cloudnative development paradigm to #embedded systems. Our platform bridges the gap between modern cloud infrastructure and the physical world, making it easy to securely develop, deploy, and manage applications across billions of resource-constrained edge devices. Imagine the possibilities when you can deploy #Docker-like containers on devices that have as little as 256KB of memory! 🚀 We're looking for an engineer who thrives at the intersection of cloud infrastructure and deep systems programming — someone excited by scalable services and low-level runtimes. You’ll help evolve our orchestration hub, contribute to our open-source Ocre project in LF Edge, and shape the future of distributed, secure edge computing. Apply today for the chance to join our growing team as we revolutionize embedded development! https://lnkd.in/gF_HU7hB

We’re excited to announce that the Atym runtime footprint is now just 128KB! That’s 2000X lighter than the typical footprint of #Docker with #Linux, while providing similar OCI-type containerization benefits and fitting into existing CI/CD workflows. This is in large part thanks to the great work by the Ocre community within LF Edge. Based on #WebAssembly and The Zephyr Project, Ocre powers our device runtime that works together with our Enterprise-grade orchestration hub. Previously, we’ve been advertising a 256KB footprint for the Atym runtime and a minimum memory requirement of 1MB in order to have room for containerized apps above. However, with ongoing optimizations, Atym can now support basic containerized apps on devices that have as little as 256KB of total available memory. Meanwhile, our containerization technology scales up to hardware of any capability - the sky (e.g. cloud) is literally the limit! But practically, our sweet spot is MCU, MPU and CPU-based edge nodes with 256KB to 2GB of memory. Drop us a line to learn more, or dive into the collaboration in the Ocre community!

In a new article featured on IoT Evolution World, our CEO Jason Shepherd explores how the rise of Industrial Edge computing is changing the cybersecurity landscape — and why zero-trust security, modular software, and open-source collaboration are key to managing increasingly distributed environments. From silicon to software, Atym is focused on securing the most resource-constrained edge devices with our WebAssembly-based orchestration platform — enabling developers to build and deploy applications at scale without compromise. We’re proud to be part of this conversation alongside our peers at Symmera, whose mission to simplify network security and enable digital trust aligns with our vision for the future of secure industrial innovation.

Post-show insights from the Atym team at #HannoverMesse2025: 📌 #EdgeAI is a hot topic, and as developers get past PoC’s, they’re learning the importance of robust tools to deploy, manage, and secure solutions in the real world 📌 Organizations are increasingly identifying #WebAssembly as an ideal technology to enable containerization on resource-constrained industrial devices to address historical embedded development challenges 📌 Open source efforts like The Linux Foundation's The Zephyr Project, Ocre, and Margo continue to gain traction to enable faster software innovation and reduce development costs for undifferentiated features. Appreciate Schneider Electric highlighting Atym, along with other industry leaders, for collaboration within the Margo community to foster interoperability across industrial-edge orchestration solutions (see pic). 📌 Many organizations are concerned about the impact of the EU’s upcoming Cyber Resilience Act (#CRA) and are looking for ways to programmatically address requirements for embedded devices Thank you to everyone we spoke with.
