If you develop real-time and embedded systems, chances are youÂ’ve never considered using a commercial DBMS in your applications. ArenÂ’t most databases slow and bulky, requiring an interface like SQL to access data?
In fact, it is not necessary to “re-invent the wheel” in this manner. There is another type of database that is dramatically different from the well-known RDBMS products, and which is a proven solution for the data storage, retrieval and manipulation needs of an embedded or real-time application on
many popular real-time operating systems (RTOS). RDM is such a low-level database engine, or embedded database. This database is built into an application at the lowest level, and is based on BirdstepÂ’s proven and highly efficient micro-kernel. This micro-kernel includes a library of C language functions that are embedded in the application and which work with the data directly (in contrast to an SQL C-API, which creates additional layers between the application and the data
stored in the database).
