ChorusOS is a microkernel real-time operating system designed for embedded systems. Sun Microsystems acquired Chorus Systems, the company which created ChorusOS, in 1997. Sun no longer supports ChorusOS. The founders of Chorus Systems started a new company called Jaluna in August 2002. Jaluna designs embedded systems using Linux and ChorusOS (which they dub "C5").
ChorusOS started as the Chorus distributed real-time operating system at INRIA in the 1980s. Over the time, development effort shifted away from distribution aspects to real-time and modularization (componentization).
The latest source tree of ChorusOS has been open-sourced by Sun on experimentalstuff.com.
Jaluna has completed these sources and made available a complete runnable system on
sf.net/projects/jaluna.
