High-performance computer (HPC)

The cornerstone of software-defined vehicles.

High-performance computing for the software-defined vehicle.

High-performance computers (HPCs) are the backbone of modern, service-oriented vehicle architectures. They power the software-defined vehicle (SDV), delivering the flexibility and scalability needed to integrate advanced software functions. With HPCs, vehicles can continuously evolve – adding new features and updates throughout their entire lifecycle.

HPC key capabilities:

  • Hosting functions as part of a service-oriented architecture, ensuring modularity and adaptability
  • Continuous upgrade of features, supporting over-the-air updates and long-term innovation
  • Multi-vendor software integration, allowing seamless collaboration across diverse ecosystems
  • Supporting architectural optimization, by reducing number of ECUs and wiring harness
