A/B slots or snapshots? Two ways to make an OTA update survive failure

22.09.2026

Both A/B partitioning and snapshot-based updating can roll back a failed OTA update. They reserve very different amounts of flash to do it, and the gap grows with the image.

Software-defined vehicle cybersecurity: why data at rest is the next regulatory and operational risk

17.07.2026

By Bernd Niedermeier

Software-defined vehicle cybersecurity is only as strong as the data stored inside the vehicle. Why data at rest is becoming the defining SDV risk layer.

ECU storage reliability testing: how to validate recovery, aging and update behavior

17.07.2026

By Bernd Niedermeier

A fresh ECU can pass read, write, and reboot tests and still fail in the field. This guide covers what ECU storage reliability testing should include (power-loss recovery, aging, performance consistency, and update behavior), how to set measurable pass/fail criteria, and what evidence to ask for before production.

Why vehicle storage performance degradation happens over time

17.07.2026

By Bernd Niedermeier

Automotive storage rarely fails outright; it drifts. Learn why vehicle storage performance degrades over time, which metrics matter, and how to catch the problem before it reaches your fleet.

Zonal architecture storage requirements: what to validate before you trust your SDV

13.07.2026

By Bernd Niedermeier

In software-defined vehicles, zonal architecture storage requirements are requirements for predictable behavior under stress rather than peak speed. What changes when storage becomes a shared resource, the requirements that matter most, and the validation evidence to ask for before you trust storage in an SDV.

Over-the-air (OTA) update failures in vehicles: storage risks that can cause bricking

26.06.2026

By Bernd Niedermeier

OTA updates rewrite critical vehicle state under real-world stress. Learn the storage failure modes that brick units, and a power-cut validation plan to catch them early.

How data reliability will shape the future of software-defined vehicles

20.04.2026

By Bernd Niedermeier

Data corruption in software-defined vehicles does not always cause a crash. Why data reliability is now a strategic concern for SDV platform architects.

Physical AI infrastructure: what industrialization changes beneath the model

01.04.2026

By Steffan Schumacher

Physical AI is industrializing. As AI moves into vehicles, robotics, and industrial systems, models can stay probabilistic, but the physical AI infrastructure beneath them cannot.

Volkswagen and Rivian joint venture – a closer look under the hood

23.08.2024

By Bernd Niedermeier

Over the past few weeks, there has been extensive commentary on the Volkswagen and Rivian joint venture. Unfortunately, many of these discussions remain superficial, lacking a thorough “under the hood” analysis. Given the potential significant impact on the entire automotive ecosystem, a more detailed examination might reveal some very interesting additional aspects. Personally I find […]

Automotive trends right around the corner

28.06.2024

By Tuxera

A brief overview of the top auto industry trends relevant to embedded data storage and networking. The greatest trends we’re seeing in the automotive industry are electrification of vehicles and, of course, software-defined vehicles. Combustion engines and hardware defined the vehicle of the near past, but today and looking ahead, the software-defined experience is becoming […]
