Meeting Market Needs

In enterprise data centers and on the desktop, virtualization is revolutionizing development and deployment of information technology. Now, Open Kernel Labs brings the capabilities of virtualization to a range of embedded designs.

Open Kernel Labs OKL4 technology offers a rich and reliable platform for next-generation designs, supporting OEM requirements that span most embedded application areas and technology markets:

• Enables an evolutionary approach to increasing reliability, safety, security, and maintainability by gradually decomposing complex monolithic software into smaller and smaller components
• Virtualizing microkernel-based platform with rich functionality and high performance
• Improved security architecture using lightweight mechanisms for the specification and enforcement of mandatory access control policies
• Open source solution with small target memory footprint for minimal BoM impact
• Support for key microprocessor architectures, including ARM, Intel, Power and MIPS
• Ability to support embedded/Real Time OSes and application OSes (Linux, Symbian, Windows) and enterprise-type application platforms like Linux, Windows and Java
• Protected execution domains for deploying device drivers and isolated, lightweight, execution environments for hosting mission-critical applications
• Robust and secure virtualization microkernel and tools for rapid time to market and bulletproof long-term deployment encapsulation of closely-held IP and segregation of open source, in-house, and 3rd party software

Open Kernel Labs OKL4 technology meets these needs and provides the ideal platform for your applications in
