ADS Offers a Comprehensive Flash Management System

A comprehensive flash management system is often overlooked in the embedded industry, but ADS' options ensure reliability, performance and flexibility.

Applied Data Systems partners with Datalight, Inc.® (www.datalight.com), to provide our customers with the highest quality flash file system designed for an embedded computer that is available on the market. The first manager of the one-two quality system is Reliance™, a transactional file system developed specifically for embedded systems. Engineers who choose Reliance do so because they cannot take a chance that data could be lost due to file system corruption. The Reliance file system is highly reliable, fast and efficient, flexible and easy to use, and supports any 32-bit operating system.

FlashFX Pro ®, the second part of the solution, is a high-performance, multi-threaded flash media manager targeted at applications requiring real-time response from resident flash memory. Many devices - such as cameras, set-top boxes or handheld medical devices - support streaming video or audio applications and information must be read from non-volatile storage without delays. Because of its multi-threaded design, FlashFX Pro is able to offer low read latency for these multimedia applications.
