SANTA CLARA, CA–October 18, 2005– Hitex
is pleased to announce today a new partnership with Real-Time Innovations
(RTI). Hitex has signed an agreement to provide U.K. distribution and
support services for RTI’s NDDS network middleware for distributed
real-time applications. RTI’s NDDS is an open-architecture, real-time
networking platform that supports the Object Management Group’s
(OMG’s) Data Distribution Service (DDS) V1.0 standard.
NDDS allows networked applications to easily connect with multiple data
sources for communication of real-time data via an easy-to-use application
programming interface (API). The technology is well proven and provides
deterministic data delivery over standard IP networks while offering services
for monitoring and control.
As part of providing this new capability for embedded systems designers,
Hitex will also distribute the RTI Distributed Data Management distributed data management system
(announced on October 17 by RTI) and the Oracle TimesTen In-Memory database
system.
Hitex managing director Mike Beach said, “This partnership with
RTI strengthens our position as a provider of software solutions in the
embedded market, especially for those customers who are involved in complex
projects where data has to be gathered and shared in real time.“
Price and Availability
RTI’s NDDS solution with RTI Distributed Data Management for Solaris, Linux and Windows
(beta version) is immediately available from RTI in the U.S. to developers. RTI Distributed Data Management includes all software elements (DDS
APIs as well as the SQL/ODBC APIs), three developer toolkits for RTI Distributed Data Management,
and a four-day product-training program. Extended training on developing
distributed database systems is available. End-user implementations that
incorporate the RTI Distributed Data Management solution will involve added per-node royalties.
NDDS can be purchased separately.
