January 12, 2010 - Bellevue, WA - ITTIA, a global supplier of embedded lightweight relational database software, has appointed Trident Infosol as its representative in the Indian software market. Trident Infosol, with six offices across India, offers extensive in-depth expertise to software application developers for embedded systems and devices.

 ITTIA's partnership with Trident Infosol will assist Indian companies to build applications for embedded systems and devices that are faster, more reliable and more capable at a lower cost.

Access to expertise and cost savings compels more and more companies to establish design centers in India, in industries such as aerospace, consumer electronics, telecommunications, automation, transportation, automotive, and medical electronics. Information technology companies offer end-to-end software development solutions, covering design, development and testing of software for embedded components and systems. Now with the combination of ITTIA DB SQL, a lightweight RDBMS, and the development expertise of Trident Infosol, embedded developers in India have access to a leading-edge embedded database SDK and quality software development experience through a single vendor.

ITTIA provides lightweight relational embedded database technology, a special-purpose software that is tailored to the unique requirements of embedded systems and devices. Developers prefer to use an embedded lightweight database that relates to their existing database knowledge. Interoperability, maintainability and cost are important criteria that developers look at.

In addition to embedded database expertise, Trident Infosol offers services for popular embedded development tools and operating systems, such as Linux. Working with ITTIA and Trident Infosol will ensure quality design, development, and testing for embedded systems and components with a great quality and low-cost. Their expertise in a variety of embedded databases, real-time operating systems, hardware device platforms, and embedded tools gives their customers an edge over the competition.

"With a worldwide market over $20 billion, embedded software invites excitement and opportunity for Indian companies," said Sasan Montaseri, ITTIA President. "ITTIA and Trident Infosol's partnership offers state-of-the-art, lightweight embedded RDBMS technology to embedded developers in India. We are excited to work with Trident Infosol and offer the best, most cost-effective database solution in India. Furthermore, we see strong potential for further growth in embedded systems and devices in India and are confident that our database technology and Trident Infosol's expertise will be of tremendous value for developers of embedded systems and devices."

"The addition of the state-of-the-art embedded RDBMS - ITTIA DB, is a very important step forward for Trident," said M.S. Ashok, Trident's Senior Vice President. "Trident today offers customers a truly end-to-end Application development tool-chain - from Requirements capture and traceability to IDEs, Compilers and tools for Test and Validation. With the addition of ITTIA DB to this chain, Trident can now offer more value to the Embedded Applications Developer. As more and more embedded design projects are being done in India, we see a very healthy growth in this segment. We are very happy that ITTIA has chosen to partner with Trident. Indian customers will benefit tremendously from the combined expertise of the two companies."
