Mission-critical reliability

QNX microkernel architecture

• Microkernel minimizes execution with

unrestricted “kernel” CPU privileges

• All processes run in isolated process space

– Includes drivers, file systems, stacks

– All QNX processes are “applications”

• Faults are contained so that they only affect the

faulty component

– Failed components can be dynamically

recovered while the system continues to

operate

Questionable reliability

Traditional monolithic architecture

• Model for most OSes available today

– Windows, Linux, Android

• OS contains tremendous amount of functionality

with unrestricted CPU privileges

• A fault in one OS component can damage any

another, leading to system-wide corruption

– System reliability is as good as your worst

driver developer

– Reboot is only recovery possible

Mission-critical reliability

QNX microkernel benefits

Development and testing

• Better software design with isolated module enforcement

• High code reuse

• Built for independent component development and testing

• Immediate isolation of bugs

• Faster develop/test cycle

Mission-critical reliability

QNX microkernel benefits

Release and management

• Immediate fault recognition and recovery

• Cleanly designed architecture that handles extensions of

SMP, HA, and TDP

• Live delivery of system upgrades and patches without

downtime

• Scalability to multi-core or distributed architectures without

re-designing software

Introducing BlackBerry 10 – Experience Revolution Everything we have ever learned about mobile packed into a full touch revolutionary experience

Because it’s always hard at work in

the background, you can peek into

other live applications to get a quick

glance of what’s going on around

you, without having to drop

everything. Saving you time. Easy.

It’s not just learning about what you

write today, but what you’ve written in

the past. It’s not just guessing the

word most people meant to write, it’s

predicting the next word you want to

write, even before you start typing it.

Less time wasted.

While you’re snapping, it’s making a

mental note of what’s just happened

so you can rewind parts of your photo

back if you just missed the moment.

No more odd expressions or awkward

retakes. Your photo is ready to share

with the world. Delightful.

Sharing

Editing with Video Chat

Every relationship, every piece of content, simple and easy to share

Relationships

Putting your relationship with people, content and things at the heart of your
