Mentor Graphics, RTI partnering on embedded Industrial IoT development

Mentor Graphics is partnering with embedded middleware vendor RTI, for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) development. The combination of Mentor Embedded technologies and the RTI Connext DDS (Data Distribution Service) middleware, now provides security from the hardware up through the software stack for distributed embedded systems communications, suitable for industrial, medical and mil-aero applications, said the companies in a statement.

“IIoT builders need end-to-end connectivity with security,” said Stan Schneider, CEO of RTI.  “Combining many technologies is a real challenge. An ecosystem of vendors with integrated products accelerates projects with much lower risk.”
