Abstract
In one example, a storage medium with program instructions to deploy immutable-image software to retail branch devices is disclosed. The operations include accessing a change request from a user interface to initiate an event on a remote computer system. The event is a deployment of immutable branch-image software to alter or reimage existing software stored or executed on the remote computer system. The operations include validating that the deployment of the immutable branch-image software is required on the remote branch computer system and generating a new partition in a memory of the remote branch computer system. The operations also include retrieving the immutable branch-image software via a secure network socket in response to the event message, installing the immutable branch-image software in the new partition and transferring operation of the remote branch computer system from an original partition of the memory to the new partition.
