McObject Announces Availability of eXtremeDB/rt for Renesas Electronics’ Synergy™ MCUs
November 1, 2022, Seattle: McObject® announces the release of eXtremeDB®/rt database management system (DBMS) for Renesas Electronics’ Synergy™ family of microcontroller units (MCU). eXtremeDB/rt is the first and only commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) real-time database management system suitable for hard real-time embedded systems.
Today’s complex real-time embedded systems require the ability to ingest data from multiple sources (sensor data fusion) and ensure that the system’s state accurately reflects the state of the external environment that it is controlling, within set timing constraints. eXtremeDB/rt offers developers of high performance real-time embedded systems an embedded database system solution never before available, a DBMS that works together with a real-time operating system (RTOS) to manage database transaction deadlines.
eXtremeDB/rt facilitates transaction deadline enforcement through a choice of real-time database transaction managers that can be selected based on the target systems’ operational pattern. Traditionally, database systems strive to ensure ‘internal’ consistency (the application of a transaction moves the database from one consistent state to new consistent state). In addition to internal consistency, eXtremeDB/rt also supports real-time embedded systems’ requirement for external consistency.
Chris Mureen, McObject Chief Operating Officer had this to say: “Embedded systems increasingly have real-time constraints coupled with complex data management that is a direct by-product of sensor data fusion. eXtremeDB/rt will be a complementary arrow in developers’ quiver. The Renesas Synergy MCU family are ideal target systems for eXtremeDB/rt because the family facilitates scalability and code reuse while delivering a range of power consumption and performance.”
eXtremeDB/rt was designed for use in resource-constrained, mission-critical embedded systems. Its small footprint and frugal use of memory and CPU make it uniquely qualified for these applications. Find eXtremeDB in millions of embedded systems, in deployments ranging from satellite systems to locomotive control, world-wide.
