eXtremeDB/rt is the first and only deterministic embedded database management system for mission- and safety-critical hard real-time applications.
Modern avionics and aircraft navigation systems, driver assistance systems, critical medical equipment and similar systems’ data management is complex, often non-interruptible and have strict requirements for timely execution. Those requirements are defined as real-time constraints on the systems’ temporal behavior. The eXtremeDB/rt pioneering design addresses those constraints through preserving the temporal validity of data and enforcing predictable execution of critical data transactions.

What sets eXtremeDB/rt apart?
Broad RTOS Support
In order to satisfy hard real-time requirements, the eXtremeDB/rt target applications must run in the context of a real-time operating system. eXtremeDB/rt is available for all major commercial RTOS including those that are certified to airborne safety (DO-178B/C ) and automotive safety (ISO 26262) specifications on selected hardware.

We’re grateful for the partnerships we have with industry leaders, and invite you to read what they say about eXtremeDB/rt in our joint press releases.
Azure RTOS ThreadX
“Managing data with a hard real-time requirement is a challenge for developers,” comments Tony Shakib, Partner General Manager, Microsoft Azure IoT. “Developers have had to use current solutions that may not meet time constraints or write their own database system. eXtremeDB/rt brings a solution to Microsoft Azure developers that eliminates this trade off.”

embOS from SEGGER
SEGGER’s CEO, Ivo Geilenbruegge, had this to say: “We are excited that McObject has created a first-of-its-kind real-time database system to complement our embOS RTOS and extend support for hard real-time systems to include database operations. Real-time systems are following the trend of embedded systems in that they are being called upon to manage more (and more complex) data.”

FreeRTOS
Richard Barry, FreeRTOS founder, said “It is good to have another high-quality option for FreeRTOS users, this time providing a real-time deterministic database which can, as just one example, fulfill a crucial role in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT): data collection, aggregation, and distribution in oil rig blow-out prevention (BOP) systems. A BOP is a specialized device equipped with sensors to detect a “kick” and actuate valves to prevent a catastrophic blowout.” Richard continued, “The need to detect and respond within deadlines is emblematic of real-time industrial systems.”
