NX_Firmware is a binary repository manager and firmware distribution server designed to store and serve versioned system update files to hardware devices. It functions as a stateless file host that organizes compiled firmware binaries in a structured directory for automated retrieval via a REST API.
The system maps specific firmware builds to compatible hardware revisions using schema-based metadata. It utilizes a flat-file asset hosting model, serving binary blobs directly from the filesystem to avoid the overhead of a database management system.
The server handles hardware version control and distribution management, using semantic version indexing and hardware-revision routing to ensure the correct firmware versions are delivered to target hardware. It provides RESTful file retrieval for use by installation bots and manual deployment tools.
