MontaVista provides software that is integrated across open source kernel versions, tools, compilers, toolchains, drivers, and applications, so they all work with each other. We integrate more than 400 open source projects so you don't have to.

When we pull in a patch, we first test it and fix the bugs in that patch. Then we review all code that patch affects and make changes so everything works together. We also integrate fixes and enhancements from newer Linux kernels to improve the quality and features of older kernels, so after you choose one kernel version for your project, you avoid frequent platform changes and can rely on a stable platform throughout your development lifecycle and your product lifetime.

Imagine the effort if you had to change kernel versions every time kernel bugs were fixed. Because MontaVista integrates fixes, changes that would otherwise require thousands of lines of code often take less than 100. In addition to fixes, we integrate new drivers and other features available only in MontaVista Linux.

MontaVista integration has saved months of integration and testing for many development teams. Without a commercialization partner, this is work you have to do yourself.

There is no place else you can obtain a single Linux OS platform with all these integrations validated against each other. They are integrated and validated together only in MontaVista Linux.
