Platform Support

Staex runs on all major Linux distributions and macOS. Standard package installation and updates via packages.staex.io. Designed for headless operation on edge devices and cloud servers alike.

Performance

Written entirely in Rust for memory safety, zero-cost abstractions, and bare-metal performance. Battle-tested on Raspberry Pi Zero 2W, Teltonika RUT956 (128 MiB RAM), Intel NUC, and cloud VMs. Achievement: 12,000 nodes bootstrapped on a single server in under 30 seconds.

Architecture

Staex is on-premises software that connects to servers only for license validation. No head/worker node differentiation — every node is equal in the mesh. True distributed topology.
