Hello everyone, I m happy to introduce the first release of **[Sparow](https://sparrow.b5.pm)**. Sparrow is an unofficial build for armhf architecture of Wazo engine. This allows you to run a Wazo engine on a Raspberry Pi. This first version is based on 19.17 release of Wazo. The project website is available at this address: [https://sparrow.b5.pm](https://sparrow.b5.pm). Here you can find all the information you need to use the project: - required hardware - installation instructions - … Finally, I would like to wish everyone the very best for this new year. ---

Hi Benoit, this is great news! Thank you so much for all the work you put into this! I am very interested by the performance you can get from Wazo on Raspberry Pi. Did you see any particular slowness when using Wazo? ---

For the moment I have not tested it itself in production, I will try to do that in the coming days. What I can say about the installation process, I encountered timeout problems with a rather slow SD card, I documented how to work around them here: - [https://sparrow.b5.pm/docs/create-service-users-fail/](https://sparrow.b5.pm/docs/create-service-users-fail/) - [https://sparrow.b5.pm/docs/setup-engine-fail/](https://sparrow.b5.pm/docs/setup-engine-fail/) My feeling, without looking for a rational thing to support it, is that wazo-auth was greedy in io. I’ll keep you posted 😉 ---

I did not find the time to benchmark my installation thoroughly, I hope to be able to do it soon. FYI: I just released version 20.01: [https://sparrow.b5.pm/post/2001-release/](https://sparrow.b5.pm/post/2001-release/) ---
