Wind River®, a global leader in intelligent edge software, has announced that Tata Elxsi, a leading provider of technology and design services, will use Wind River Studio Developer to expedite its DevSecOps process. This partnership aims to optimize Tata Elxsi’s development workflows and boost its capabilities in creating software-defined vehicles (SDVs).
Studio Developer is a comprehensive edge-to-cloud DevSecOps platform designed to accelerate the development, deployment, and management of mission-critical systems. It facilitates the adoption of cloud-native development capabilities, allowing for continuous evolution and improvement of software-defined features throughout their lifecycle. The platform enhances productivity and efficiency by leveraging scalable cloud resources, standardizing automation pipelines, enabling cloud-based collaboration, and improving traceability in the software development process.
The automotive industry’s transition to cloud-connected, software-defined vehicles presents complex challenges that demand robust DevSecOps strategies to manage the software lifecycle effectively. While modern cloud-native tools and techniques enable rapid innovation, they must be adapted to address the unique challenges of intelligent systems and embedded software. Wind River’s cloud-native DevSecOps tools help minimize disruption and maximize existing investments, allowing teams to incrementally enhance their workflows and processes using their current software and IT infrastructure.
“Wind River Studio Developer will significantly enhance our software workflow productivity and efficiency in our SDV initiatives,” said G. Nambi Ganesh, General Manager and Head of Automotive at Tata Elxsi. “Our partnership with Wind River will enable us to help our customers achieve their SDV goals by simplifying and accelerating the DevSecOps process while ensuring safety, security, and other critical requirements.”
“Industry-leading organizations are leveraging Studio Developer to reduce embedded software lifecycle costs, shorten time-to-market, and capture new revenue opportunities. The complexity of SDVs necessitates maintaining high quality standards, making our virtual lab capabilities particularly valuable for automated testing and validation, including both software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop approaches,” said Sandeep Modhvadia, Chief Product Officer at Wind River. “We are excited to collaborate with Tata Elxsi to drive innovation and provide them with a competitive edge.”
In 2022, Wind River was acquired by Aptiv, a global leader in mobility technology. By integrating Wind River’s cloud-native software platforms with Aptiv’s Smart Vehicle Architecture™, the combined entities are empowering customers to fully realize the potential of software-defined vehicles throughout their lifecycle.
“Wind River has enhanced our portfolio with industry-leading solutions, allowing us to offer a comprehensive sensor-to-cloud solution and unparalleled expertise in safety and mission-critical systems,” said Benjamin Lyon, Chief Technology Officer at Aptiv. “With the power of Studio Developer, Tata Elxsi will greatly improve software development efficiency and meet the complex demands of future mobility and software-defined vehicles.
