Application containers the Nokia way
We’ve added an abstraction layer to our devices on top of which applications can run using dedicated CPU power and memory.
The abstraction layer separates the apps from the device operating system meaning they can be installed and managed directly by you and independently of the device’s firmware updates.

Application container developer ecosystem
We have an ecosystem of 3rd party developers who make their applications available through our Nokia Application Container platform.
