Product:  Arabella Linux
Company:  Arabella Software Inc
Type:  Software
Description:  Arabella Linux is our flagship product. Its main differentiators from standard Linux distributions are in the following key areas:
  • Device drivers
    Most standard Linux drivers offer only minimal support for device functionality and are full of board-level dependencies. Arabella has totally re-written most of the drivers it uses to directly address these problems. We provide the most complete, robust and optimized drivers currently available in a Linux distribution.
  • System-On-Chip (SoC) support
    Standard Linux solutions for many SoC devices require compile-time selection of peripherals, their modes of operation and configuration parameters; this greatly restricts the functionality of your product. Arabella drivers allows you to enable/disable peripherals, completely re-configure them, re-assign parallel I/O pins and almost anything else in run-time, via standard management techniques. In many modern, multi-service systems, this is usually an absolute necessity.
  • Fast-path/slow-path separation
    Many advanced processors support the partitioning of fast-path/slow-path processing, where fast paths of applications are handled in either micro-code or hardware blocks. This requires support in the software – for control, management, error handling, etc. Arabella offers unique solutions for such environments based on its modifications of standard Linux modules. This results in standard Linux modules that generate a huge throughput boost by exploiting hardware capabilities and accelerations.
