Former Wind River Executives Introduce New Model for Embedded Industry
EMBEDDED SYSTEMS CONFERENCE BOSTON, BOSTON, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- In
response to what they see as a growing set of challenge for manufacturers of
embedded devices, two industry veterans have founded a new company for the
embedded industry. Started by former Wind River executives, Curt Schacker and
Jim Ritchie, Embedded Solution Partners was created to help embedded
developers deal with the complexities of selecting, licensing, and integrating
a variety of software technologies found in many embedded devices. Embedded
Solution Partners consists of a highly experienced team of professionals with
expertise in communication protocols, security, network management, high
availability, distributed data management, and development tools.
"The challenges facing embedded device manufacturers have never been
greater than they are today," said Curt Schacker, managing partner of Embedded
Solution Partners. "Until now, these companies haven't had a resource like
this, one in which we're providing best-in-class products through
relationships with the industry's top suppliers, while complementing those
products with expert consulting on technology and business-related issues."
Embedded Solution Partners currently offers products and services from
five industry-leading embedded software vendors, including:
-- Development tools, networking middleware, and control systems design
tools from Real-Time Innovations, Inc.
-- Distributed data management from Sleepycat Software, Inc.
-- Virtual prototyping tools from Virtio
-- Network management from SNMP Research International, Inc.
-- Network switching and routing solutions from LVL7 Systems, Inc.
(See separate announcements from these vendors)
Embedded Solution Partners offers these products on an individual basis or
fully integrated in different combinations for a complete solution. These
solutions can then be delivered pre-ported on reference hardware or on a
virtual hardware platform.
"We're extremely pleased to have put together partnerships with some of
the top companies in the embedded industry," commented Jim Ritchie, managing
partner of Embedded Solution Partners. "By combining these products with our
own consulting expertise, we are in a great position to address one of the
most challenging aspects of any embedded development project, the system
integration phase."
"The highly fragmented nature of the embedded industry, in terms of both
device manufacturers and software suppliers, has resulted in enormous
inefficiencies," commented Dr. Jerry Krasner, vice-president market
intelligence Embedded Market Forecasters (http://www.embedded-forecast.com). "What's
intriguing about the Embedded Solution Partners model is that it allows
manufacturers to assemble the most appropriate solution from a number of
leading suppliers while working with a single company who can also add expert
advice on both business and technical issues."
Embedded Solution Partners will be demonstrating a number of solutions at
the Embedded Systems Conference Boston, in Boston's Hynes Convention Center,
November 18-21.
