The Software Framework for Autonomy
Architects and developers choose Connext Professional to build open and scalable real-world systems. Its data-centric connectivity framework distributes and manages real-time data, allowing applications and devices to work together as one, integrated system. Its decentralized architecture and peer-to-peer communication enable high-reliability and a real-time Quality of Service (QoS) while eliminating bottlenecks and any single point of failure. A rich set of tools simplifies development and accelerates integration testing and debugging, from design to deployment. With over 70% of the DDS market share, Connext Professional delivers the most proven foundation for mission-critical systems.
Connecting Distributed Systems
Connext Professional is a robust framework for developing and integrating safety- and mission-critical systems. Its data-centric approach eases system integration by allowing applications to interact directly with data objects and enables the creation of scalable systems that span diverse public and private networks.
