Power-Fail Safe File Systems for Real-Time Environments

Tuxera’s file systems are designed for instant recovery and data integrity, even in the face of unexpected power loss—a crucial feature for embedded devices in Safety-critical and high-availability applications. Unlike traditional journal-based systems, Tuxera’s transactional file systems ensure:

Rapid reboot times to minimize downtime
Prevention of data corruption, safeguarding last known good data
Resilience against operator interruptions or electrical faults

These capabilities make Tuxera's solutions an ideal complement to PikeOS's partitioned, real-time environments.

Certifiable Software for the most demanding Standards

Tuxera provides complete certification support packages, including documentation, test results, and traceability, tailored for Safety-focused sectors:

DO-178C for Aerospace
ISO 26262 for Automotive
IEC 61508 for Industrial Automation
EN 50128 for Railway
and other standards for industrial applications

When integrated with SYSGO’s PikeOS—which also supports Common Criteria EAL 5+ (Cybersecurity)—developers benefit from a cohesive, certifiable environment for building Safety-critical systems.

Customer Success in Safety-Critical Applications

Tuxera’s file systems are field-proven across sectors:

ScioTeq, an avionics systems provider, adopted Tuxera after extensive benchmarking, concluding that in-house development couldn’t meet both their timeline and safety requirements. Their partnership with Tuxera and SYSGO allowed them to meet their DO-178C certification goals while staying aligned with their MOSArt® roadmap.
A smart meter customer, initially using ext4 under Linux, needed a file system that could exceed an 18-year lifetime. With Tuxera’s Reliance Nitro, they achieved 28–32 years of operational lifetime, thanks to superior write amplification and tailored file system configuration.
Another industrial customer described how their team tries to “break the file system” during extreme testing (e.g., battery pull competitions) and continues to seek out Tuxera software for each new RTOS they evaluate.

Failsafe, certifiable File Systems for Mission-critical Use

Tuxera’s patented file systems prevent data corruption through atomic operations and power-fail Safety, ideal for real-time environments built on PikeOS

Seamless Certification

Tuxera’s DO-178C and ISO 26262 evidence packages align with PikeOS’s certifiability, reducing engineering effort and accelerating system-level approval

Shared Commitment to Safety and System Longevity

SYSGO and Tuxera both offer proven solutions with long operational lifespans and flight heritage, trusted by Aerospace, Automotive, and industrial leaders.

Modular, Hardware-agnostic Design

Both PikeOS and Tuxera solutions are built for flexibility, supporting a wide range of processor architectures and customer-specific configurations

Expert Engineering and Long-Term Support

Customers benefit from direct access to specialized engineering teams and long-term product support, ensuring peace of mind for high-stakes projects
