Abstract
An update deployment service performs automatic testing and deployment of a software update (e.g., security patches) for a software component on a fleet of IoT devices, without the need for the client to test the update and manually deploy the update to the IoT devices. A client configures the service by providing an upper usage limit for certain IoT hardware components (e.g., memory, hard disk) and/or code components (e.g., threads) that may be caused by any future updates. When a new update is available for deployment, the update deployment service obtains usage test data that indicates the amount of usage (or increase in usage) of the IoT hardware and/or code for the new update. If the usage (or increase in usage) is within the client-provided usage limits, then the service automatically deploys the update to the fleet of edge devices.
