OSR Open Systems Resources

At OSR, we're experts in operating system software: Windows device drivers, Windows file systems, debugging complex Windows problems, and most things related to Windows internals. System software is all we do. And, over the past 20 years, people tell us we've gotten pretty good at it. Along the way, we've even become pretty decent at doing certain kernel-mode software on Linux. Let us help with your Windows system software project. Whether it's one day of consulting for an informal design review and discussion, a multi-day class taught by one of our experienced engineers, or end-to-end custom design and development of your driver, your projectcan benefit from our definitive expertise.

At OSR, we take pride in knowing our business, knowing it well, and applying this knowledge for the benefit of our clients. We know Windows systems internals better than anyone, and we're happy to tell you that. We don't know MFC, COM, SOAP, Ruby on Rails or almost any of that other programming that happens up in user-mode. And we're happy to tell you that, too. So whatever you receive from OSR - whether it be a product, Solution Kit, seminar or project deliverable - you'll know that it was developed by an engineering team that is tops in its field.

At its heart, OSR is a consulting company. Renowned for its no-nonsense approach to assignments, and its scrupulous regard of confidentiality concerns, the OSR engineering team can bring its expertise to your project. Whether you have Windows driver development, Windows file system development, or a general Windows kernel-mode project, OSR can help. You might need just a day or two with an architect. OSR can help. If you're starting a significant project involving Windows kernel-mode software, wouldn't it be beneficial to have another seasoned engineer sit down with your team to discuss design options?

OSR teaches public and private seminars about Windows driver development, file system development, minifilter development, debugging, crash dump analysis, forensics, and Windows internals. Public seminar presentations are regularly scheduled around the world, including regular presentations at OSR's dedicated Seminar Space at our offices in Manchester, NH or via remote attendance. Customized, private presentations are also available to corporate clients at their location or, optionally, at our Seminar Space.

Our software development Solution Kitsprovide solutions that package stable, time-testing technology, with support from an engineering staff that has helped dozens of customers deliver successful solutions to market.
