• Latest version of the open source, real-time virtualization software from Wind River offers improved throughput and latency times, delivering near-native hardware performance speeds.
• Wind River Open Virtualization includes enhanced live migration capabilities and expanded guest OS support to further enable network functions virtualization (NFV).
• The Wind River offering leverages a fully open source, Yocto Project Compatible platform.

EMBEDDED LINUX CONFERENCE EUROPE, Edinburgh, United Kingdom — Oct. 24, 2013 — Wind River®, a world leader in embedded software for intelligent connected systems, has introduced the latest version of its open source, real-time, multi-core-enabled kernel virtualization technology offering, Wind River Open Virtualization. The new version includes performance and live migration enhancements.

Open Virtualization optimizes open source Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) technology to allow the deployment of network services on virtual machines without the performance loss associated with using traditional, IT-like virtualization products. Open Virtualization delivers near-native hardware performance speeds, whereas standard KVM maximum latency is typically several thousand percent higher than native results. Delivering carrier grade virtualization and built from a Yocto Project—based infrastructure, Open Virtualization is a Type 2 hypervisor that leverages the latest open source advancements for greater cross-platform compatibility and interoperability.

The latest version of Open Virtualization includes the following features:

• Improved throughput and latency speeds, including an 18% reduction in maximum interrupt latency since the introduction of the product earlier this year


• Improved virtual switching throughput with integrated Intel® DPDK vSwitch, offering a 450% increase in virtual switching speeds over standard Open vSwitch.


• Enhanced live migration capabilities, including intra-CPU migration to intra-node migration and intra-virtual machine switching.


• oVirt-powered live migration console, including support for guest operating systems migration


• Security enhancements based on SELinux


• Additional hardware support for the latest Intel architectures


• Expanded guest OS support

"As new devices continue to connect to an increasingly strained network, next-generation telecom equipment must scale to support technologies such as cloud and NFV in order to meet rising data traffic demands and address new service deployment challenges," said Davide Ricci, product line manager for open source platforms at Wind River. "With Wind River Open Virtualization, customers can achieve real-time, carrier grade virtualization to roll out services anywhere on the network and boost network efficiency while significantly lowering operational costs. Operators can have greater flexibility and scalability to quickly introduce new services as needed by taking advantage of a virtualized or cloud environment with the added benefit of consolidation on standardized hardware."

Open Virtualization is a high value software add-on that works with Wind River Linux. Wind River Linux delivers a commercial-grade Linux platform and easy out-of-the box user experience with a rich set of capabilities based on the latest open source technologies, fully integrated development tools, worldwide support and maintenance, and expert professional services.

Additionally, Wind River continues to further advance open source innovation with new OpenStack efforts around cloud and clustering work, including bringing the OpenStack Grizzly release to the OpenEmbedded and Yocto Project ecosystem. Wind River is a Yocto Project founding member and Gold member of the advisory board, and actively holds key maintainer and technical lead positions.

NEWS HIGHLIGHTS

• Using VxWorks, Bosch Motorsport quickly developed high quality engine control units that helped World Endurance Championship race engineers achieve optimum vehicle performance and triumph during the 2013 season.
• Bosch Motorsport was able to shorten their development time by over 50 percent for their engine control units.
• VxWorks allows telematics-enabled components to effectively manage tasks for data acquisition and communication to help race engineers receive vast amounts of performance data in real time.

ALAMEDA, Calif. — Dec. 10, 2013 — Wind River®, a world leader in embedded software for intelligent connected systems, has announced that Bosch Motorsport, part of the Bosch Group, one of the world’s largest suppliers of automotive components, is using VxWorks® for its engine control units (ECUs) for endurance motorsport race cars. During the 2013 season, the Bosch Motorsport ECUs powered the winning team at the "6 Hours of Silverstone" race in April, "6 Hours of Spa" race in May, and the "24 Hours of Le Mans," the crown jewel event of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) in June.

Engine control units play an essential role in race cars, often with features enabling telematics, data logging and wireless connectivity. Reliable, hard real-time performance for ECUs is a mission-critical requirement; without it, racers risk the dangerous outcomes from a failing or out-of-control engine. Telemetry is also vital to a winning race strategy as it enables teams to interpret massive amounts of data during competitions to help racers reach peak performance. A precursor to the Internet of Things, race telemetry requires significant machine-to-machine connectivity and intelligence. VxWorks allows telematics-enabled components to manage tasks for data acquisition and communication, and ensure that race engineers properly receive the vast amounts of performance data in real time.
"The speed and complexity of racing demand powerful and highly deterministic automotive devices. For deterministic, real-time performance, VxWorks Bosch Motorsport uses VxWorks. By doing so, Bosch Motorsport creates components that allow race engineers to be competitive and achieve optimum vehicle performance," said Markus Kirschner, group leader for hardware development at Bosch Motorsport. "Wind River provided highly effective and reliable technology, support, and services throughout the entire project. Wind River helped us develop an advanced, high quality product while meeting challenging deadlines. In fact, we were able to shorten development time by over 50 percent for our engine control units."

Bosch Motorsport, a division of Bosch Engineering Group and a world leading automotive supplier, develops and manufactures systems and components for use in motorsports. To meet all of Bosch Motorsport’s requirements, Wind River provided a comprehensive offering including a fully integrated VxWorks platform with the middleware, tools, board support package availability, training, and technical support and services. By delivering a complete offering, Wind River minimized Bosch Motorsport’s need to hunt for additional resources, helping to keep the project moving quickly. Given the intricacies of race cars, Wind River worked closely with Bosch Motorsport during the complex integration process and provided extensive training.

"In the world of racing, fractions of a second can make a difference. VxWorks delivers the highest levels of deterministic performance. Wind River has been excelling at M2M and IoT technologies, like cutting-edge real-time telemetry, even before there was a name for it," said Georg Doll, general manager of automotive solutions at Wind River. "Wind River helps Bosch Motorsport and its customers achieve maximum levels of vehicle performance. Having a worldwide industry leader like Bosch Motorsport trust in our technologies further reinforces Wind River’s decades of automotive experience."

The Wind River automotive portfolio also includes Wind River Platform for Infotainment, Wind River Connectivity Solution Accelerator for iOS device connectivity, Android expertise, Tizen integration services, tools such as Wind River Diab Compiler, and virtualization and hypervisor technologies. Wind River world-class professional services and global support help customers better manage the highly detailed requirements, complex software integration, and intricate project planning associated with the automotive industry.
