Tuxera storage solutions by automotive domain

ADAS/Autonomous Driving storage and networking

Ensuring road safety and an enjoyable ride, ADAS requires rich data from sensors in the car. The storage hardware and software need to withstand heavy read-write-and-repeat cycles every day. A high-performance, lifetime-protecting storage management software is the smartest choice in ensuring the flash memory hardware lasts the entire lifetime of the vehicle.

File systems, flash management, and networking for ADAS data

File system for Linux, QNX

File system for INTEGRITY, RTOSes

Raw flash manager for Linux, INTEGRITY, RTOSes

File system for VxWorks

Comprehensive IPv4/v6 network connectivity: IPsec, MACsec, TLS, & more

Certifiable TCP/IPv4 networking stack developed to ISO 26262

Car dashcam and DVR

Every millisecond of video data capture counts. The storage solutions for car dashcams and DVRs need to be high performance, low latency, handle multiple, parallel data streams, and withstand countless write and erase cycles.

Digital cockpit and instrument cluster

Ensuring road safety brings emphasis to the critical nature of the data used and stored for this automotive domain. An added challenge is that these environments are often hyperconverged and virtualized, and the storage should support a shared, centralized infrastructure to save on cost and vehicle weight. The storage solutions used in this domain must support these virtualized environments, withstand heavy reads and write-and-erase cycles every day, be power fail-safe, and boot rapidly in case of failure.

EDR: in-vehicle event recorders or black boxes

With the data collected from black boxes, safety analysts and accident investigators can evaluate how cars perform in crashes and ultimately design safer cars. Its main requirement is ultimate durability in order to preserve data integrity. The type of data collected by the EDR depends on regional government regulations and the level of automation of the vehicle.

Vehicle speed, braking, engine RPM, location, radar, LIDAR, and video streams from various cameras are just a few examples of the event data possibly stored inside EDRs.

EDR storage needs to withstand heavy write and erase cycles throughout its lifetime, plus provide rock-solid power-fail safety to ensure data is stored in event of a crash or failure. High-performance, lifetime-protecting, fail-safe storage management software is the smartest choice for black box use.

Connected car IVI and infotainment systems

Tuxera’s file systems are the go-to choice in premium automotive infotainment (IVI) systems. Our GravityCS by Tuxera file systems – Microsoft exFAT by Tuxera, Microsoft FAT by Tuxera, Microsoft NTFS by Tuxera, Tuxera HFS+, and Tuxera APFS – are already at work bringing full interoperability with memory cards and USB storage. They also make IVI systems faster, more responsive, and more durable – helping you deliver the best possible ride to your drivers.

The IVIs of the future need more than just external storage support, however. Future IVIs must be able to run multiple, data-intensive applications at once. An added challenge is that these environments are often hyperconverged and virtualized, and the storage should support a shared, centralized infrastructure to save on cost and vehicle weight. The storage solutions used in this domain may need to support these virtualized environments, while also withstand multiple reads and countless small writes every day, provide interoperability with external storage, and boot rapidly in case of failure.

Automotive telematics

Telematic devices deliver data such as position and onboard diagnostics, fuel consumption, or driver behavior. The goal is often to improve fleet management and efficiency, and to protect the safety and wellbeing of fleet drivers. These devices require rich data from sensors in and outside the car.

Edge storage needs to be provided inside the car because it’s not feasible to transmit all data to the cloud for further processing. These storage solutions need to withstand heavy read workloads, countless write-and-erase cycles every day, and get the maximum life out of the storage hardware. The storage also needs to be power-failsafe to ensure the necessary data is preserved in event of failure.
