Azure RTOS & licensing terms - Eclipse ThreadX nowadays

JanneKiiskila

Just reading through the wikipages:

https://wiki.st.com/stm32mcu/wiki/Introduction_to_Azure_RTOS_with_STM32

and chapter 2.2 refers to:

  • User is granted production, provided the development is performed on an MCU that is listed officially by Microsoft

Is this a valid requirement anymore, as my understanding is that Microsoft has transferred the Azure RTOS to Eclipse foundation (ref: https://threadx.io/) and it's nowadays called Eclipse ThreadX.

 

Major wikipage update for someone? Azure RTOS is all over the place, including the pictures...

Azure RTOS components will stay in released STM32Cube packages, with the usual support by ST and the related Microsoft license, allowing the use in production, free of charge.

ST will continue to update in coming months some of these packages, to align with the latest version 6.4.0 of Azure RTOS, and possibly fixing some issues, if any are still raising.

You may choose to switch to equivalent Eclipse ThreadX components with an MIT license (source code is exactly the same).
