As we transition to software-defined vehicles, automotive applications must be developed faster and deployed at scale. Vast amounts of data must be collected and analyzed for data-driven development of vehicle functions. To keep pace, an efficient DevOps process is essential, supported by standardized base software, middleware, and configuration tools – all while maintaining safety and security. We at ETAS help you to achieve this with our expertise, solutions, and services.

Tackling the challenges of accelerating software development

Accelerating software development requires new structures and clear objectives at every level.

Speed up

Focus on developing brand-differentiating software and leave the rest to automotive software suppliers and the open-source community. This shortens development cycles, speeds up bug fixes and the introduction of new features.

Drive revenue growth

Building and continuously enhancing SDV platforms through accelerated software delivery unlocks ongoing monetization and opens up new business models and revenue opportunities.

Maintain strategic control

Partnering with us as your experienced automotive software supplier ensures your open-source software projects result in automotive-grade solutions, speeding up development while keeping strategic control.

Bring the software-defined vehicle to life with efficient software development

To bring the software-defined vehicle to life, the DevOps cycle is becoming the foundation of the automotive development process. ETAS solutions, tools, and services accelerate this process by increasing the speed and efficiency of software development, deployment, and operation.

To accelerate automotive software development, leveraging open-source software (OSS) is key. Automotive-grade OSS shortens development cycles, fosters innovation, and taps into a broad community of developers and researchers.

As an OEM, this approach allows you to free up resources to focus on developing differentiating software that enhances your brand's uniqueness. The result? Faster time to market and greater emphasis on delivering customer-centric, brand-defining experiences without starting from scratch.

At ETAS, we empower you to leverage the entire open-source ecosystem while ensuring your software projects meet the automotive industry’s specific requirements and you maintain your strategic autonomy.

AI Vehicle application generator

Our AI Vehicle app generator enables you to create new vehicle functions using natural language. It quickly generates deployable applications with built-in safety and compliance features through the ETAS Vehicle edge solution, streamlining innovation and reducing costs by eliminating the need for development expertise.

  • Create new vehicle functions in no time at all.
  • Experience the new function immediately via vehicle visualization.
  • Develop once, deploy across various vehicle types and models.

Driving innovation: ETAS in the Eclipse software-defined vehicle working group
