'Wind River Titanium Control', a software virtualization platform that cost-effectively improves older control systems without IoT connectivity

Wind River announced the launch of Wind River Titanium Control, a software virtualization platform for the Intelligent Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). Designed to enable critical infrastructure enterprises to cost-effectively innovate aging legacy control systems that do not support existing IoT connectivity, the product supports the optimization of industrial processes through next-generation on-premise analytics.

Wind River Titanium Control is a commercially deployable on-premises cloud infrastructure that virtualizes existing physical subsystems through an open-standard-based platform. It not only guarantees the high performance, high availability, flexibility, and low latency necessary to reduce capital and operating costs, but also minimizes unexpected downtime for industrial applications and control services of all sizes. In addition, unlike general enterprise IT virtualization platforms, it guarantees high reliability for applications and services deployed at the network edge, such as fog computing.

In industrial and manufacturing markets, data is exposed through real-time virtualization images and learning loops.

The key features of 'Wind River Titanium Control' are as follows:

The key feature of Wind River Titanium Control is that it is open-source software based on the de facto industry standard for on-premises cloud and virtualization, supporting Linux, real-time KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine), and OpenStack.

It achieves high performance and high availability through accelerated communication between vSwitch and virtual machines and virtual infrastructure management capabilities, and provides innovative security features such as isolation, secure boot, and platform-aware trusted platform modules.

It provides scalability for 2 to 100 computing nodes and updates software non-disruptively without interrupting services or applications.

“Titanium Control combines Wind River’s long experience in real-time operating systems with on-premise cloud computing technology. This combination enables the virtualization of real-time automation applications that, until recently, could only be implemented on embedded system hardware.” "The impact of these technologies on the manufacturing automation market is so extensive that major automation suppliers are also paying attention to it," he mentioned.

“With the emergence of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), there is a growing demand to build open and secure next-generation platforms,” said Jim Douglas, President of Wind River. “Through Titanium Control, Wind River plans to lead a new industrial era by enabling virtualization, real-time performance, and end-to-end connectivity between the edge and the cloud.”
