## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 10/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 61, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 2802, "days_push": 238, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases, archived
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
Debian-Pi-Aarch64 is a 64-bit Debian-based operating system image for the full range of 64-bit Raspberry Pi hardware (Pi 2Bv1.2, 3B/B+/A+, 4B, CM3/4, Pi 400, Zero 2W). It ships with Docker and self-hosting tooling preconfigured for ARM64, but the 2.0 project has been officially frozen and is no longer maintained.

## Use cases
- install a 64-bit OS on raspberry pi 4
- run docker containers on raspberry pi arm64
- 64-bit operating system for raspberry pi 3b+
- self-hosted server on raspberry pi
- use full 8GB RAM on raspberry pi 4 with 64-bit system
- raspberry pi CM4 64-bit image

## When to choose
- you need a ready-made 64-bit Debian image for older 64-bit Raspberry Pi boards and accept an unmaintained system
- you want Docker and self-hosting tooling preinstalled on a Pi

## When to avoid
- you need security updates or ongoing support - the project is officially frozen
- you want the official Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit or a actively maintained alternative
- you need support for Raspberry Pi 5 or newer hardware

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: self-hosted, developer-tools, container-runtime, configuration-management
- domain: operating-systems, embedded-systems, self-hosted, cross-platform
- platform: embedded, iot
- tags: raspberry-pi, aarch64, arm64, debian, 64-bit-os, pi-4b, pi-3b, pi-zero-2w, deepin, system-image, frozen-project, linux, docker
