| | JULY 20249Tata Technologies has announced a strategic partnership with Arm to drive innovation in software-defined vehicles (SDVs). This collaboration aims to combine Tata Technologies' automotive expertise with Arm's high-performance, power-efficient technologies to reduce development time for automotive OEMs and advance connected, autonomous, and electric vehicles.The automotive industry's shift towards SDVs is driven by the growing demand for connectivity, autonomy, and sustainability in vehicles. SDVs require advanced software that integrates seamlessly with hardware to enhance functionality, safety, and user experiences. In this partnership, Tata Technologies will develop a SOAFEE reference architecture stack using Arm's Automotive Enhanced (AE) technologies and Arm Compute Subsystems (CSS) for Automotive. This development will be supported by a cloud-native framework that integrates various DevSecOps and virtual platform solutions, accelerating the time to market for automakers.This partnership follows successful demonstrations at CES 2024 and Mobile World Congress 2024, where Tata Technologies and Arm showcased a cloud-native reference software architecture for SDVs on Arm SoCs. Additionally, at Embedded World 2024, they presented these solutions on the newly launched Arm Cortex-A720AE in a virtualized environment, emphasizing a shift-left strategy for safety-critical vehicle software on heterogeneous computing systems.Warren Harris, CEO & Managing Director of Tata Technologies, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration: "We are excited about this collaboration with Arm, which underscores Tata Technologies' commitment to engineering a better world by enabling the automotive industry to realize connected, autonomous, and sustainable products that deliver great customer experience. As a strategic partner of Arm, we are developing innovative solutions leveraging their advanced Arm AE technology, and we expect this collaboration to deliver significant time-to-market benefits for the whole automotive industry. We are optimistic about the future of our partnership and the transformative impact it will have on shaping the future of mobility".Dipti Vachani, senior vice president and general manager of Arm's Automotive Line of Business, commented on the partnership, "Vehicle electronics are becoming increasingly complex with the need for more AI and software to improve user experiences and advance autonomy. This partnership combines the high-performance, power-efficient and functional safety leadership of the Arm AE technology platform and the time-to-market advantages of our CSS for Automotive with the automotive software expertise from Tata Technologies to empower our mutual customers to accelerate the development of AI-enabled vehicles".The collaboration between Tata Technologies and Arm is poised to create a significant impact on the development of next-generation vehicles. With 25 years of experience in product engineering and digital services, and a track record in delivering engineering solutions to the automotive industry, Tata Technologies is well-equipped to cater to the needs of SDVs. The partnership will facilitate rapid prototyping, testing, and deployment of SDV technologies, unlocking new opportunities for developers and shortening the time to market for leading OEMs.The strategic alignment of Tata Technologies and Arm signifies a promising future in cloud-native solutions for the automotive sector. By leveraging advanced technology and software development expertise, this collaboration aims to enhance the capabilities of SDVs, making vehicles more connected, autonomous, and efficient. As the automotive industry continues to evolve, partnerships like this will be crucial in meeting the growing demands and expectations of modern consumers.
