The Top Seven Reasons to Choose OS-9

  1. Speed: OS-9 is one of the fastest RTOSes available.
  2. Reliability and security: OS-9’s elegant modular architecture and use of processor MMUs protect against memory faults and application errors that crash other RTOSes.
  3. Development Environment: Debug processes and dynamically load system components (even device drivers) without rebooting. Optimize performance with built-in system and application profiling. Generate exceptionally efficient code with a compiler tuned specifically for OS-9.
  4. Processor Support: OS-9 supports PowerPC, 68k, x86, StrongARMv3/v4, XScale, MIPS3000/32/64, SH-3, SH-4, and SH-4A. (Extra Benefit: Code compiled for one architecture can easily be recompiled later for another if processor requirements change.)
  5. Standards Compliance: Enhanced portability with support for BSD-Sockets, IPv6 and POSIX Threads. Customers have rapidly ported applications from Linux to OS-9 in days instead of weeks that other RTOS require.
  6. Fully Scalable: OS-9 supports the full range of applications, from small and deeply embedded to complete solutions with graphics and networking.
  7. Technical Support: Our support engineers are RTOS application experts and are available via email, phone or live web-based consultations; and are backed by RadiSys Corporation – the leader in embedded systems technology.
