dSPACE achieves the AWS Automotive Competency designation

More automotive customers leverage the Cloud to innovate and transform their operating model, relying on Cloud experts with extensive automotive experience. AWS Automotive Competency Partners provide customers with solutions and services across their digital transformation journey while being assured they have support from a validated AWS Partner to meet their needs. These solutions follow AWS’s best practices for building secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient cloud infrastructure for industry-specific applications.

Achieving the AWS Automotive Competency defines dSPACE as an AWS Partner Network (APN) member with demonstrated technical proficiency and proven customer success in running Cloud solutions on AWS for the automotive industry. This program showcases automotive consulting and software AWS Partners who have domain knowledge and provide Cloud services. To receive the AWS Automotive Competency designation, AWS Partners must undergo a rigorous technical validation and provide vetted customer references.

Gregor Hordys, Product Manager Data Replay at dSPACE said: “dSPACE is proud to achieve the AWS Automotive Competency. Our team is committed to accelerating the development of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD) applications by leveraging the agility, breadth of services, and pace of innovation that AWS provides.”

At the IAA Mobility (September 5 to 10 in Munich, Germany), dSPACE will be demonstrating together with Equinix at the AWS booth (Hall 2, Booth B20) how Cloud-based solutions for the automotive industry can shorten the development times of ADAS and AD applications.

The showcase demonstrates how data recorded from a test vehicle with a dSPACE AUTERA Data Logging System is uploaded to AWS via 100G Direct Connect located in an Equinix data centre. Once the data sets are available and curated in the Cloud, they can be downloaded to dSPACE data replay stations in Equinix data centres around the world to validate perception and data fusion algorithms of ADAS/AV ECUs under real-world conditions.

AWS is enabling scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions from startups to global enterprises. To support the seamless integration and deployment of these solutions, AWS established the AWS Competency Program to help customers identify AWS Partners with deep industry experience and expertise.
