Alpine Linux is an independent, non-commercial, general purpose Linux distribution designed for power users who appreciate security, simplicity and resource efficiency.
Alpine Linux is built around musl libc and busybox. This makes it small and very resource efficient. A container requires no more than 8 MB and a minimal installation to disk requires around 130 MB of storage. Not only do you get a fully-fledged Linux environment but a large selection of packages from the repository.
ChromeOS Flex is a free, cloud-based operating system that revitalizes existing Windows, Mac, or Linux devices, providing a fast and responsive experience without the need for powerful hardware. It features a simple, intuitive interface ideal for users comfortable with web browsers, and emphasizes security through sandboxing and automatic updates. With the Google Admin console, organizations can easily manage ChromeOS Flex devices, making it a practical choice for extending the life of older hardware and reducing e-waste. While it lacks the built-in security chip and access to Android apps found in standard ChromeOS devices, ChromeOS Flex remains a robust and eco-friendly solution.
