Beltsville, MD, October 26, 2009 — Empress Software, embedded database developer central and
home of the Empress Embedded Database, and LynuxWorks™,
a world leader in the embedded software market, announce immediate availability
of Empress Ultra Embedded Database v10.20 on the latest LynxOS® RTOS 5.0. Empress Embedded
Database and LynxOS RTOS (real time operating system) are the foundation for
diverse embedded systems with hard real-time requirements from mission-critical
military and aerospace applications, to advanced medical systems and diagnostic
equipment, to high-tech industrial and process control systems.
Empress Embedded Database is an advanced, full-featured
database engine specializing in embedded systems data management technology. With
high-performance, small footprint and a variety of popular APIs (C, C++, SQL,
ODBC, and Java), Empress is also unsurpassed in functionality. Empress is a
reliable, zero-maintenance database that delivers predictable and deterministic
response.
The LynxOS® RTOS 5.0 is the superior foundation
for sophisticated real-time embedded systems, built upon more than two decades
of RTOS experience. With LynxOS RTOS, developers can build applications and
code that meet the most stringent military- and commercial-grade requirements
for real-time mission critical applications. Code developed for LynxOS uses
open standards and common formats like those found in Linux® POSIX®,
and UNIX® systems, resulting in faster time-to-market and long term
investment protection through open standards-based development.
“Our first port to LynxOS debuted over 15 years ago back in
1994 and we’ve been dancing beautifully ever since. The new port demonstrates
our lasting commitment to supporting LynxOS,” states John Kornatowski, president
of Empress Software. “Empress Embedded Database and LynxOS is a proven, winning
combination, relied on for years by customers that have embedded Empress and
LynxOS into their tireless systems and sent them out into the field including
United Defense, Abbott Diagnostics, and Firestone.”
“Our long-standing working relationship with Empress has
helped us deliver a proven real-time flexible database with a solid and
reliable foundation for customers using embedded systems,” said Robert Day, VP
Marketing, LynuxWorks. “Empress Embedded Database and LynxOS are an enduring
choice for developers looking to create safe and compliant code for a wide
