Achieve Secure Partitioning with NXP Hypervisor on X-ES Hardware

What Is the NXP Hypervisor? 

The NXP (formerly Freescale) hypervisor is a special low-level software program that facilitates secure partitioning. It acts as a partition's resource and security manager, presenting a virtual machine to the operating system running in each partition. The hypervisor may manage multiple virtual machines and partitions, from a single thread on a core to multiple threads and multiple cores. 

Systems that traditionally use multiple processing boards to isolate applications can be consolidated into a single, multi-core board by using partitioning to allow each partition to run its application separately and securely.
