Elektrobit, AWS Automotive Software Competency Partner has announced the immediate availability of its EB corbos Linux—built on Ubuntu operating system (OS) software development kit (SDK) on the AWS Marketplace. The EB corbos Linux SDK Amazon Machine Image (AMI) is an open-source OS tailored to embedded automotive use cases for developing next-generation automotive systems based on powerful high-performance computing (HPC). With the free basic OS and SDK, automotive engineers and software architects can leverage powerful build machines from AWS to build custom OS images in the cloud, accelerating the development and innovation of software-defined vehicle (SDV) platforms.
EB corbos Linux—built on Ubuntu brings the world’s largest embedded Linux development community to the automotive industry while supporting stringent automotive security and regulatory requirements and providing reliable, long-term maintenance. With its availability on the AWS Marketplace, EB corbos Linux allows automakers to start new projects within minutes and collaborate on them remotely by emulating their software and hardware on Amazon EC2 instances powered by the Arm-based AWS Graviton processor family.
“By leveraging the ‘always-on’ AWS cloud infrastructure, globally distributed teams can collaborate seamlessly, enabling agile development and faster delivery of customer value,” explained Mike Robertson, Chief Product Officer and Managing Director at Elektrobit. “We see the EB corbos Linux SDK AMI playing a key role for OEMs pursuing a ‘Shift Left’ development strategy as it will facilitate the movement of testing, quality and performance evaluation earlier in the overall process.”
EB corbos AdaptiveCore is an Adaptive AUTOSAR-based middleware, tailor-made for automotive, providing multi-OS support for POSIX operating systems for safe and secure high-performance controllers. It provides features required for modern software-defined vehicle (SDV) platforms and comes pre-packaged with key functionalities such as vehicle communication over SOME/IP, diagnostics management, and access management. With the SDK, automakers can experience fast and modern development workflows free of hardware dependencies and instantly scale their projects.
EB corbos Linux and EB corbos AdaptiveCore will in the near future be joined in the AWS cloud by the recently released EB corbos Linux for Safety Applications, accelerating safety-related application development with the first Linux OS solution to comply with ASIL B/SIL 2 safety requirements.
