Scalability of RTOS enhanced through visualisation profile
A visualisation profile for the next generation of its RTOS, has been introduced by Wind River. The Virtualization Profile integrates a real-time embedded, Type 1 hypervisor into the core of the the VxWorks 7 Core Platform, separating its OS from packages such as the file system or networking stack. This allows individual applications to be updated without requiring a rework of the entire system, increasing the RTOS's scalability and ability to quickly adjust to market changes.
Through the embedded visualisation offered by the profile, users can consolidate multiple workloads on a single processor. Robust, safe and secure partitioning across all market segments, from automation control to medical scanners to avionics control systems, is provided by the visualisation profile. By using the OS-agnostic profile, combinations of VxWorks, Linux, Windows and other OSs can also share the memory and cores of a multi-core processor or SoC.
“VxWorks with integrated virtualisation allows customers to address IoT device challenges, where connectivity, scalability, security, and future-proofing are required,” said Dinyar Dastoor, Vice President of Product Management, Wind River. “It delivers the key benefits that will give our customers a competitive edge in consolidation, flexibility, safety, and security, as well as CAPEX and OPEX savings, and significant reduction in development time for end devices. We see a strong need for these capabilities across all market segments, but with an emphasis where connectivity is now requisite, such as in industrial, medical, aerospace and defence.”
A webcast, entitled “Meeting Today’s IoT Device Challenges with Virtualization and Consolidation”, will be hosted by Wind River on the 20th August 2014.
