Wind River Linux is a great choice for medical devices requiring Linux

  • July 15, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
Wind River Linux is a great choice for medical devices requiring Linux. It provides a stable platform which is a necessity for devices that operate under FDA regulations. You get the benefits of Linux and open-source, with the advantages of dedicated support and controlled changes. Additionally, Wind River will customize a BSP for your hardware specifics.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have a particular dislike of Wind River Linux. They are the best solution in the Linux space for embedded medical device software. If anything, as with all Wind River, they are not inexpensive, but WRL is certainly inexpensive in contrast to VxWorks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a legacy product with a Linux distro that was constantly changing, requiring us to manually maintain our build. There was even a case where a library we used disappeared, only to find that it was literally maintained by a teen in his basement, and he basically dropped it. Moving to Wind River Linux provided a controlled and validated platform we could use. Additionally, they provide a validation report indicating the build meets performance requirements. It's also worth noting that the Wind River VxWorks OS is an industry-standard name for safety-critical applications. They carry this knowledge into the Linux world with this product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Utilize Wind River support. They were able to provide a custom BSP for our exact needs. They also provide documentation specific to medical devices and provide support. For every release, they provide a complete set of verification and validation documentation. Take advantage of their services.
