Committed to Delivering a Software-Defined Future

Software-defined vehicles (SDV) offer significant safety and convenience features, enabling new in-vehicle experiences and functions through software and delivering updates and services over-the-air (OTA). For automakers, OEMs, and tier one suppliers, SDVs can deliver major revenue and customer relationship benefits and help meet stringent functional safety standards.

The evolution from hardware-defined to software-defined compute requires new development paradigms to address advanced compute architectures and increasing software complexity to ensure seamless development and deployment from the cloud to the car. Arm and our partners are committed to making this a reality.

The cloud-native paradigm can fundamentally change the way automotive software is developed, tested, and deployed in the future. This approach provides a scalable solution to enable the SDV, but can it truly adapt to the real world? This blog explores the key considerations needed to successfully apply cloud-native to automotive.
