McObject, developer of the eXtremeDB and Perst embedded database management systems (DBMSs), has signed UK-based Phaedrus Systems to resell and provide services surrounding McObject’s technology.
The partnership specifically targets safety-critical systems, where both companies bring extensive track records, expertise and compelling product offerings.
Phaedrus has a team of consultants with experience of working on automotive, rail and aerospace applications while meeting key safety-related standards such as the aerospace industry’s DO-178B. This work is strengthened by the active participation of Chris Hills, Phaedrus’s founder and chief technology officer, in technology standards bodies.
It offers support to engineers at all stages of embedded safety-critical and high-integrity projects. Its product lineup includes requirements capture, real-time operating system (RTOS), compiler validation and other specialised tools for developing fail-safe applications.

“With McObject’s eXtremeDB, Phaedrus can now offer a real-time embedded database capable of taming the burgeoning data in fault-tolerant applications, while meeting their safety and reliability imperatives,” Hills said.
Hills noted that McObject also is an ideal fit in Phaedrus’s target market with offerings including a proven eXtremeDB High Availability edition, which enables deployment of multiple, fully synchronised databases within the same hardware device or across multiple, widely distributed systems, with automatic failover; and with eXtremeDB’s unique type-safe application programming interface (API) that eliminates data-typing errors, a common source of run-time bugs
