APIs

This page provides an overview of the Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) available in the Ocre platform. These APIs allow developers to interact with various features of the Ocre runtime and create containerized applications.

Overview

Ocre provides two primary categories of APIs:

1. Container APIs: APIs that are accessible from within containers and allow applications to interact with hardware, timers, and other system resources. These are designed for application developers building solutions that will run within Ocre containers.

2. Container Runtime API: The API for managing the Ocre container runtime environment itself, including container lifecycle operations. The Runtime API is intended for system implementors and integrators looking to incorporate the Ocre runtime into their own solutions.
