VxWorks expertise
at a glance
Our VxWorks experience shows wherever maximum reliability,
real-time capability and robust system integration matter. We make complex
requirements manageable and make sure embedded systems stay
stable in industrial environments over the long term.
VxWorks for demanding applications
Deterministic real-time behavior even under high system load, stable industrial communication across modern VxWorks 7 network architectures, the use of real-time processes (RTPs) and modular features for flexible, scalable designs.

What sets VxWorks apart from other RTOS
Maximum real-time performance
Interrupt latencies of around 1.3 µs with minimal jitter – standard Linux reaches 50–200 µs. This determinism is decisive for control applications in rail and the process industry.
Commercial and SIL-certifiable
VxWorks Cert Platform enables SIL4 certification to EN 50128. Used in safety-critical applications from aerospace to rail.
Virtualization and modern architectures
Running VxWorks in virtualized environments (KVM-based). RTPs and modular features enable flexible, scalable system designs.
Professional tooling
Wind River Workbench provides professional debugging, performance analysis, system tracing and latency optimization from a single source.
