Open source for the open road: How Red Hat is helping transform the automotive industry
Redefine what vehicles can do
Drivers want their vehicles to be as intuitive and interactive as the mobile devices they depend on. To keep pace with these rising expectations, automakers are looking for ways
to speed up development and continuously serve drivers with new and exciting features—and to do so profitably.
However, as cars become increasingly software-driven, dependencies between hardware and software can become a challenge to manage when trying to meet these goals. Coupled with vendor lock-in inherent in traditional platforms, automakers often find it hard to focus on the next generation of premium features and connected services that will set them apart in the market and open up new business models.
Right now, advancements in electrification, autonomous driving, and seamless connectivity are ushering in the era of the software-defined vehicle. It will be the adoption of flexible, software-driven technologies that will accelerate innovation and enhance the vehicle’s full digital life cycle.
Through a breadth of capabilities both on board and off board, Red Hat can support the digital transformation that forms the foundation of the software-defined vehicle.
Transform each step of the vehicle life cycle
Today, leading automakers are evolving quickly to accommodate changing customer preferences and emerging technologies. Red Hat supports vehicle manufacturers’ goals of getting to market faster and adopting new business models through:
- Accelerating transformation with an open source, enterprise-grade, Linux-based in-vehicle platform that supports safety- and non-safety-related applications.
- Empowering safer, intelligent vehicles with cutting-edge onboard and off-board solutions that adapt to evolving needs and technologies, enhancing driving experience and safety while increasing reliability.
- Building expansive ecosystems and a common approach to standards through the power of the open source community that meets changing automotive business needs.
- Supporting the vehicle’s digital life cycle with an enterprise-grade, long-term support model.
