Green Hills Software

Green Hills Software is a privately held embedded software company founded in 1982 by Dan O'Dowd and Carl Rosenberg and headquartered in Santa Barbara, California. It builds safety- and security-certified real-time operating systems (INTEGRITY, INTEGRITY-178 tuMP, u-velOSity), embedded hypervisors (INTEGRITY Multivisor, u-visor), optimizing C/C++/Ada/Fortran compilers, the MULTI and AdaMULTI integrated development environments, the TimeMachine back-in-time debug suite, the DoubleCheck static analyzer, the Green Hills Probe hardware debugger, and networking, file-system and USB middleware. Its customers ship these components inside aerospace, defense, automotive, medical, industrial, rail, telecommunications and consumer devices. Green Hills is a toolchain and operating-system vendor rather than an API provider: the programmable interfaces it ships are in-product C/C++, POSIX and MULTI-Python scripting APIs delivered with a licensed installation and documented in manuals distributed with the product, and its technical support portal at support.ghs.com requires an account. No public web API, developer portal, or machine-readable API description was found on any Green Hills host during enrichment.

Green Hills Software is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Embedded Systems, Real-Time Operating Systems, RTOS, and Compilers.

Green Hills Software’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, training material, and 14 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/green-hills-software: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
