Deploying immutable image software via memory partition of branch retail devices

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform the following operations:

• accessing, over a network via a network communication interface, a change request from a user interface to initiate an event on a remote branch computer system, wherein the event on the remote branch computer system is a deployment of immutable branch-image software to alter or reimage existing software stored or executed on the remote branch computer system;
• validating that the deployment of the immutable branch-image software is required on the remote branch computer system;
• generating a new partition in a memory of the remote branch computer system;
• retrieving the immutable branch-image software via a secure network socket in response to the immutable branch-image deployment event message received via the messaging databus;
• installing the immutable branch-image software on the new partition of the memory, and
• transferring, at a predetermined time, operation of the remote branch computer system from an original partition of the memory to the new partition of the memory.

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• accessing, over a network via a network communication interface, a change request from a user interface to initiate an event on a remote branch computer system, wherein the event on the remote branch computer system is a deployment of immutable branch-image software to alter or reimage existing software stored or executed on the remote branch computer system;
• validating that the deployment of the immutable branch-image software is required on the remote branch computer system;
• generating a new partition in a memory of the remote branch computer system;
• retrieving the immutable branch-image software via a secure network socket in response to the immutable branch-image deployment event message received via the messaging databus;
• installing the immutable branch-image software on the new partition of the memory, and
• transferring, at a predetermined time, operation of the remote branch computer system from an original partition of the memory to the new partition of the memory.

The method of 17 further comprising:

• determining a current status of the remote branch computer system;
• comparing the current status to a new status included in the immutable branch-image deployment event message;
• and
• in response to the current status not matching the new status, determining that the alteration of the software is required on the remote computer system.
