Open Source Summit is the premier event for open source developers, technologists, and community leaders to collaborate, solve problems, and gain knowledge. It’s the gathering place for code and community contributors across domains – cloud, kernel, AI/ML, embedded, DevOps, and more.
Whether you are deep in code or enabling the open source ecosystem, this is where your work gains momentum and impact.
The agenda for Open Source Summit India is now live!
Join developers, technologists, and community leaders across key tracks including:
- Cloud & Containers
- Embedded Linux Conference
- Linux
- Open AI + Data
- Open Source 101
- Open Source Leadership
- OSPOCon
- Zephyr
Don’t miss the sessions featuring Zephyr RTOS. The Zephyr track is for developers using or considering Zephyr in embedded products. Sessions will explore project advancements, security, tooling, and real-world applications across industries.

Zephyr for Open Source Health Devices – Ashwin Whitchurch, ProtoCentral Electronics
Tuesday August 5, 2025 3:30pm – 3:55pm IST
This talk would highlight the importance of open source health devices and how we used Zephyr across several hardware platforms to develop these devices. We will draw on experiences from our projects including HealthyPi 5, HealthyPi 6 and the wearable HealthyPi Move, all open source hardware and software. More specifically how Zephyr enabled the use of practically a single codebase across three different microcontroller platforms in different form factors.
Zephyr Support for Heterogeneous SoCs – Amneesh Singh, Texas Instruments & Soumya Tripathy, Texas Instruments
Tuesday August 5, 2025 4:05pm – 4:30pm IST
This session will be about my current and ongoing experience at Texas Instruments where I have been working on enabling Zephyr for AM243x platform, a multiprocessor heterogeneous evaluation module with both Cortex-R and Cortex-M cores and all the challenges I have faced in the process. This includes adding board support, device trees, device drivers, as well as testing the peripherals to ensure proper function on Zephyr. I will also be walking through the process of writing a device driver and the device driver model for Zephyr, and my experience and the challenges I encountered in doing so. The talk will also include the gaps and challenges involved in booting a heterogeneous SoC, the limitations I faced with MCUBoot as a bootloader for Zephyr, the potential alternatives, and the solution involving TI’s RTOS bootloader. The aforementioned topics may serve as a reference guide for enabling more heterogeneous SoCs in the future.
Introduction To Twister and Adding Support for Hardware Runners – Kedareswara Rao Appana, AMD
Tuesday August 5, 2025 4:40pm – 5:05pm IST
Twister, as Zephyr RTOS’s test runner, operates by automating the testing pipeline—discovering test cases, building them for target platforms, executing them on hardware or simulators, and reporting results. In this presentation will talk about how twister works like test case identification, configuration and build executing on hardware and how results are being collected
Venue Information:
This year’s Open Source Summit India will take place in Hyderabad (Hyderabad International Convention Centre (HICC) Izzathnagar, Hyderabad, Kothaguda, Telangana 500084, India) a vibrant city where history meets innovation. Known as the “City of Pearls,” Hyderabad offers a rich cultural experience from historic landmarks like Charminar and Golconda Fort, to modern hubs like HITEC City and Ramoji Film City, the world’s largest film studio complex.
Enjoy the warm hospitality, diverse culture, and culinary highlights, especially the world famous Hyderabadi biryani as you connect with the people shaping the future of open source.
