Hi Everyone

I’m working on a project where I need to manage several Balena devices at the same time. Does anyone have recommendations for efficiently handling parallel deployments or managing multiple devices from a single remote location?

Thanks!

Hello @TravisShaw first of all welcome to the balena community!

What do you mean by managing several balena devices at the same time? Could you please share more specific details?

I would like as well to get more specific details on managing multiple devices from a single remote location!

Looking forward to learn more

You can use BalenaCloud for managing multiple devices remotely. It allows fleet management, parallel deployments, and monitoring from a single dashboard. Using Balena CLI, you can push updates to all devices simultaneously. Also, consider balena SSH for remote access and tags/variables to organize devices efficiently.
