Ittia, a Bellevue, Washington, provider of embedded database software for autonomous systems and IoT devices, has released a database for IoT microcontrollers (MCUs).

Ittia DB IoT for MCUs is a time series embedded database for data processing and data management on devices running real-time operating systems (RTOS). This database technology is suitable for device applications that require fast response to process data, such as events and alarms, that both push and pull updates.

It is architected for sensors to process streams of data and enables devices to separate valuable information from massive raw data by monitoring, collecting, processing and running embedded continuous queries. This embedded database balances edge and cloud computing for scalable IoT systems.

DB IoT should enable manufacturers of embedded systems and IoT devices to optimise data management costs, reduce latency, increase scalability and benefit from the ease of development for deploying and managing complex embedded systems. The database empowers devices to process time series data streams in real time, while devices locally manage collected data for future analysis and querying.

Systems embedded with DB IoT ingest time series data from various data sources onto local flash media, export analysed data in timestamp order, and run real-time queries according to application data management requirements.

DB IoT is architected to make the edge data management and processing journey seamless, cost-effective and modern, as it brings core database competencies to MCUs where resources are limited.

“The core foundation of Ittia DB IoT is a powerful database architected with MCUs in mind,” said Sasan Montaseri, Ittia president. “This high-performance embedded database for data processing and data management offers high ingestion rate capability to the edge devices, as well as the flexibility of integration with other companion software residing on or outside MCUs. DB IoT empowers sensors and edge devices to monitor, store and run real-time queries against large volume data streams. The concept of data as the new oil really is true. DB IoT acts as an on-site refinery that transforms crude raw data into valuable information before leaving the IoT edge.”

Ittia provides secure data management and processing software for intelligent embedded devices. Its database enables manufacturers and architects of computing devices to collect, process and distribute data in real time on edge network devices. Its simplicity, ease of use and security offer developers the peace of mind to innovate device applications. It is designed for mission-critical application development and deployment, at reduced cost.
