Sandboxed Application

A Sandboxed Application is an Application that can run over a Multi-Sandbox Executable. Sandboxed Applications can be linked statically to the Multi-Sandbox Executable or installed dynamically on the device.

Typical use cases for a Sandboxed Application are:

over the air provisioning: the Application is dynamically installed or updated on a fleet of heterogenous devices.
modularization: a monolithic application is split into multiple Sandboxed Applications; each of them can be started or stopped separately.

The following figure shows the general process of building a Sandboxed Application.
