DC/OSx


DC/OSx is a discontinued Unix operating system for MIPS based systems developed by Pyramid Technology in 1989. It ran on its Nile series of SMP machines and was a port of AT&T System V Release 4. In 1995, Pyramid Technology was acquired by Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme, and DC/OSx was superseded by the SINIX operating system.

History

DC/OSx was the first symmetric multiprocessing implementation on Unix System V Release 4.
DC/OSx was later superseded by SINIX, a version of the Unix operating system from SNI. Features of DC/OSx were incorporated into SINIX; later versions were branded as Reliant Unix.
