BlackBerry's QNX division partners with Sift, a data infrastructure platform. The collaboration provides near real-time observability for embedded systems. Engineers can stream live telemetry from QNX OS 8.0 devices into Sift's platform. They can query this sensor data using standard SQL within one second of its transmission.
The integration simplifies development, requiring no firmware or software changes on the device. The partnership targets the growing 'Physical AI' market. This market includes automotive systems, robotics, industrial automation, and medical devices. QNX technology powers over 275 million vehicles globally. Clients include BMW, Toyota, and Volkswagen.
