The Empress database engine and standard application programming interfaces provide LynxOS 4.0 developers with a reliable database component embeddable into mission-critical, real-time embedded solutions.
"Using a commercial database engine such as Empress instead of a home-grown system makes economic sense.
Developers save significant time in the valuable development phase, and even a greater amount of money in subsequent years of product maintenance", states Ivor Ladd, Vice President of Technology at Empress Software.
Empress Software and LynuxWorks both value openness and strong adherence to industry standards.
LynxOS 4.0 offers Linux binary compatibility, where Linux C application programs can run unchanged under LynxOS.

"This is further validation of our philosophy that providing off-the-shelf solutions based on open standards is good for our customers-they can buy compatible, easy-to-use software, save time, and focus their energy and expertise on developing more unique features for their products".
