Package Building
The Klara Package Management solution helps our partners build and sustain custom package repositories that meet their needs for recency, security, and stability. Our team ensures you select the correct branch point, eliminating unneeded dependencies, choose the best distribution mechanism, and optimize your build process for the best turnaround.
The Challenge
The requirements of each environment are unique, and the applications and options delivered to them should be as well. Removing unneeded features and options reduces the attack surface of your infrastructure, reduces the frequency of critical patches, and improves overall security posture. It also creates a lightweight operating system, designed to manage exactly what you need it to and nothing else.
