| Elektra 0.11.0

Who uses Elektra?

Elektra has three different main targets.

# Desktop

Elektra allows applications to read and write from a global configuration tree. We miss a specification (schema) so that these configuration values can be shared (integrated).

Known users:

- Oyranos
- LCDproc (in progress)
- KDE (in progress)
- OpenHAB (in progress)

# Embedded

Elektra is on the frontier for embedded systems because of its tiny core and the many possibilities with its plugins.

Known users:

- OpenWRT (distribution)
- Broadcom (blue-ray devices)
- Kapsch (cameras)
- Toshiba (TVs)

# Server

Elektra is ideal suited for a local configuration storage by mounting existing configuration files into the global tree. Nodes using Elektra can be connected by already existing configuration management tools.

Known users:

- Allianz
- TU Wien
- Other Universities
