The automotive industry is rapidly evolving with vehicles becoming increasingly complex and software-driven. This shift brings significant advantages such as enhanced functionality and connectivity but also introduces new challenges in both vehicle development and maintenance. These challenges become especially apparent during a vehicle’s operational phase, where reliable and secure software updates and Diagnostics are essential. To address these issues, both ASAM and eSync offer solutions that enable over-the-air (OTA) software updates and Diagnostics.

 

ASAM SOVD (service-oriented vehicle Diagnostics) and the eSync platform provide complementary approaches that enable secure remote access to vehicles. Together, they offer a powerful framework for managing OTA updates and performing Diagnostics across increasingly complex architectures. 

 

ASAM and eSync Alliance have published two whitepapers to explain the advantages of using both ASAM SOVD and the eSync platform together: 

 

  • Part 1 explores how the integration of ASAM SOVD and eSync OTA can streamline connected vehicle diagnostics and software updates. This combination enables remote technicians to resolve issues reported by vehicle owners seamlessly, reducing the need for visits to service centers, and enabling new use cases of remote support that involve remote diagnostics and OTA updates together.
