Safety certified microkernel-based Hypervisor
EB corbos Hypervisor
Execute multiple and different guest operating systems on one single CPU
EB corbos Hypervisor is ASIL B safety certified, microkernel-based open-source type-1, hypervisor. It provides a virtualization environment to execute multiple and different guest operating systems on a single CPU. These virtual machines are spatially and temporally isolated to support security-critical and safety-related applications. EB corbos Hypervisor provides a VIRTIO framework to allow seamless sharing of peripherals such as GPU, mass storage and network devices.
Reduce ECUs
Virtualize multiple guest systems to consolidate several physical ECUs into a single hardware unit
Lower porting and maintenance costs
Abstract the hardware using a standardized VIRTIO interface supported out-of-the-box by many operating systems
Reuse legacy apps in isolated virtual machines
Run legacy and modern operating systems side by side without requiring additional porting work
Customize boot order for apps and virtual machines
Fulfill non-functional requirements such as performance, reliability, and safety
Support multiple organizational units
Allow independent teams to integrate their software onto a shared ECU without conflict
Optimize resource utilization
Control access to critical peripherals like network interfaces, crypto cores, and board components
Ensure highest security levels
Operate in a secure environment with a minimal, trusted computing base. The micro-kernel ensures non-privileged apps run with high functionality
