RTI
The Real-Time Communications Platform for Smart Integrated Systems

The Internet revolutionized the way people communicate, what they do and how they work. The next wave of the Internet will connect machines and devices together into functioning, intelligent systems. These interconnected devices will work together with unprecedented speed, scale, and capabilities.
Real-Time Innovations (RTI) is the key provider of the communications platform for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) space. RTI is headed by CEO Dr. Stan Schneider and headquartered in Sunnyvale, CA. With more than a decade of experience and hundreds of real-world IIoT applications, RTI is the leading embedded middleware provider. RTI software connects machines to data to build intelligent systems and enables the IIoT to deliver applications never before possible.

The Differentiating Technology

RTI Connext™ DDS is the world's leading implementation of the Data Distribution Service for Real-Time Systems (DDS). DDS is a standard managed by the Object Management Group (OMG), which also manages the fast-growing Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) founded by GE, Intel, IBM, Cisco, and AT&T.
Connext DDS is a high-performance, highly-reliable interconnection platform. RTI Connext DDS transparently delivers data across devices, languages, operating systems and networks. It is very intelligent; it understands the needed flow and delivers only the data you need, precisely when you need it. DDS is the only technology that delivers the flexibility, reliability and speed necessary to build mission-critical real-time applications. RTI’s tagline “Your systems Working as one,” is accurate, because a DDS-connected set of devices and applications shares data so closely that it can be designed and managed as a single system.

RTI Connext DDS is proven in infrastructures for mission-critical power generation, advanced medical systems, wind turbine farms, air traffic control, military systems, robotics and factory automation. Connext DDS products fulfill the demanding performance, reliability, and security requirements of critical infrastructures, including support for deployment in distributed and dynamic environments at the network edge.

Connext DDS offers a simple programming model, flexible integration capabilities, and open interfaces. This allows software architects and developers to develop distributed applications faster, integrate systems more efficiently, and maintain products at a lower cost.

Going forward, the company is weaving new strategies across the globe. The firm’s current user base is spread across the Americas, Europe and Asia. “Our customers span the breadth of the Internet of Things including medical, energy, mining, air traffic control, trading, automotive, unmanned systems, industrial SCADA, naval systems, air and missile defense, ground stations, and science,” said Schneider. “The total value of systems that currently or will soon trust RTI for their fundamental architecture exceeds $1 trillion.”

The CEO concludes by saying, “RTI was recently named the Most Influential Company in the Industrial IoT and I am a steering committee member of the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC). Now, we’ve been named as one of CIO Review’s Top IoT Solution Providers. Our goal is to accelerate the development of connected industrial IoT applications and to provide a common blueprint for building systems in the Industrial IoT. Companies that require either extreme reliability, high performance or an extended life cycle trust their distributed systems to RTI.
