InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
Whilst the 64-bit SoC project isn't being actively developed we are working hard on OpenTitan (https://opentitan.org/, https://github.com/lowRISC/opentitan) which we hope will become the first large scale deployment of significant open source silicon IP.
Our RISC-V core, Ibex (https://github.com/lowRISC/ibex) continues to be developed, I recently updated our testbench to use step by step co-simulation with Spike, which you can run in either VCS or with Verilator (so allowing a fully open source verification option). It will be used in OpenTitan and we've had multiple companies let us know they've been using it various things (e.g. Wavious: https://github.com/waviousllc/wav-lpddr-hw/tree/main/rtl/ibex).
