Comment: added link to documentation on DAC Cloud µService and DAC security solution

...

The BundleGen tool is a command-line tool that runs in the cloud to prepare containers for use on specific platforms. It uses template files created by an operator to ensure that the container is configured appropriately for the specific hardware requirements of an operators STB. This includes but is not limited to graphics libraries, sockets, IPC and network configuration. More detailed documentation for BundleGen can be found here: BundleGen

In later stage DAC cloud µServices for automatically creating bundles has been contributed, also solution that adds security (signing and encryption).  For summary overview documentation on that we refer to DAC session at Technology Summit 2023#pane-uid-b13cbeba-87dc-4f0a-9932-5b7e00770663-1  Documentation on DAC security is available to access restricted page DAC Security 

SDK

To develop DAC applications, an SDK has been developed that allows developers to write Bitbake recipes that compile their code and produce an OCI image. This OCI image can then be uploaded to an OCI registry where it can be converted and downloaded to a STB ready to be run by Dobby. The SDK is based on Yocto 3.1 Dunfell and does not require any RDK specific layers - instead it uses the standard Poky distribution and can run on a developer's workstation, independent of any other build systems. This decreases the amount of time it takes for a developer to build and test their application, reducing development time.
