Small footprint embedded databases are integral to a variety of Consumer Electronics devices that require sophisticated data management.

Gaming software has data control logic and AI information that must remain resident for interactive responsiveness. Multi-player game servers require controls over concurrent access to data, event notifications, transactional integrity and fast and flexible search methods.

Digital television technologies, such as set-top boxes and home gateways also have sophisticated data management requirements. The Electronic Programming Guide (EPG) manages TV listings, program and channel descriptions, IRD tuning parameters and related information. The EPG imports data from broadcast or terrestrial sources. The viewer can search, filter and sort this information, and select programs for immediate or future viewing. McObject's eXtremeDB in-memory database integrates easily with IRD software, providing a low-overhead real-time database engine that keeps pace with content providers' high-rated input feed and exposes a rich set of native data types that map to the EPG data.

We invite you to read the EE Times In Focus article, Programming guide manages networked digital TV, or download our white paper Data Management in Set-Top Box Electronic Programming Guides.
