Hello
I am starting a prototype using Arduino Yun and AWS IoT SDK. From Openwrt website
OpenWrt is not intended to be a distribution you can load onto an embedded device and expect to do everything you want out of the box. Instead, the OpenWrt framework allows you to tailor your embedded operating system to your own particular needs.
What is the alternative to Openwrt in a production device?

Yocto:
The Yocto Project is a Linux Foundation workgroup whose goal is to produce tools and processes that will enable the creation of Linux distributions for embedded software that are independent of the underlying architecture of the embedded software itself. The project was announced by the Linux Foundation in 2010.

I'm not sure what the problem is? You seem to think the passage you quoted is say you cannot or should not use OpenWRT in a production device? I don't read it that way.
What I'm reading is that one should not expect that a generic distribution of OpenWRT will be suitable for a specific device without performing some level of customization. I read it that once you have customized it to fit your hardware, then you can go ahead and use it in production - much the same way that the Arduino team made some customizations to OpenWRT to make it fit the Yun before using it to put the Yun into production.
Thank you @ShapeShifter. Resolved.
