McObject announced that eXtremeDB 3.1, the latest release of its in-memory embedded database for real-time, high availability applications, has been tested as compatible with MontaVista Linux Carrier Grade Edition (CGE) 4.0. eXtremeDB version 3.1 targets telecom and datacom embedded software with index functions for more efficient communications-related sorting and retrieval, and with an improved high availability sub-system. That makes it an ideal fit with MontaVista Software's full-featured, deployment-proven Linux CGE 4.0, which adds advanced hard real-time capabilities, new and unique clustering services, and other features for building carrier grade telecom and datacom systems. McObject's eXtremeDB is currently used in demanding communications systems including embedded Linux-based WiMAX base stations, Web acceleration appliances, call management systems, IP phone terminals and VoIP border controllers. The database system provides critical features--including transactions, concurrent access, and a high-level data definition language--while maintaining a tiny code footprint (as little as 50K) and real-time responsiveness through a streamlined, all-in-memory design. In version 3.1, eXtremeDB High Availability adds `hot synchronization,' or the ability to attach new replica databases to a master database without blocking updates, and implements a schema evolution feature, for adding a replica node with a new database layout. New indexes offered in eXtremeDB 3.1 include Patricia Trie index and R-Tree index. McObject is a leading provider of open source software solutions for embedded systems and real-time applications. MontaVista Software is the leading provider of Linux for intelligent devices and telecommunications infrastructure.
