“We saw in 2010 the confirmation of the strong interest in PikeOS since its introduction to the market as COTS product in 2005”, said Jacques Brygier, VP Marketing of SYSGO. ”Almost all major RTOS vendors have since joined the trend of embedded virtualization, but PikeOS remains ahead of the pack with a unique technology designed from ground-up to address the most stringent requirements in terms of safety and security. The 3.2 release demonstrates once again the flexibility and scalability of the product with SMP support of new architectures and new Personality like Android.”
