This white paper, co-authored by MongoDB and Capgemini Invent, addresses the challenges automotive manufacturers face in updating the intricate software systems embedded in modern vehicles. It emphasizes the inefficiencies of traditional manual update processes, highlighting the associated costs and inconveniences for manufacturers and vehicle owners. Adopting over-the-air (OTA) updates is a promising solution to streamline the update process and increase customer satisfaction. However, the unique challenges of implementing a reliable OTA process, such as data transfer costs, heterogeneous vehicle systems, and security concerns, must be addressed.
Explore best practices, a proposed architecture for a robust frequent OTA (FOTA) system, and how to leverage technologies like MongoDB's Atlas Device Sync to conduct frequent, reliable OTA updates, enhancing customer satisfaction and reducing operational costs.
