To ensure the security and consistency of the operating system over time, it is strongly discouraged that the Linux platform and drivers be modified with an Arduino Cloud Pro subscription. If customers wish to make such modifications, they should purchase a complete factory from Foundries.io.

No, `apt` is not available in the base image. Instead, you should use a Docker container where you can install the software you need.

Arduino IoT Pro Cloud for the X8 includes a Foundries.io subscription to the Secure & Scalable IoT Software Platform. This subscription enables customers to create a derivative factory for securely managing the Linux distribution and containers on Portenta X8 fleets through OTA updates. The subscription fee is based on batches of 50 devices. For example, if you have 100 devices, the fee will be equivalent to 2 batches of 50 devices each.

Portenta X8 boards use a Linux distribution that includes all necessary firmware, applications, and configurations for operation while excluding unnecessary software. A new image is created to update the system, firmware, and applications. When a new image becomes available, it can be flashed onto the target board to apply these updates.

- **What is the difference between the web shell and ADB shell?**

8282
The web shell, included in the Out of the Box Experience (OOBE) interface, runs as a container on the X8 and provides web-based access to the device.

The ADB shell, on the other hand, is a separate container and application used to access and control the X8 from a PC.

Yes, containers are self-contained in Docker. When you pull a container image, such as Ubuntu, it includes all the necessary files and dependencies required to run the containerized application.

[Docker](https://www.docker.com/) is a platform for managing applications using containers. Containers are isolated environments that encapsulate everything needed to run an application, making them portable and consistent across development, testing, and production environments.

Docker itself is not an operating system; rather, it runs as a program on a host operating system (such as Linux). It allows you to download, install, use, and share applications packaged as containers. You can find a wide range of container images on [hub.docker.com](https://hub.docker.com/).

- **When we update a factory image, does it also update the containers, such as Python?**

Yes, updating a factory image includes the latest applications, firmware, and configurations. This means that containers, including those for Python, will also be updated as part of the new image.
