JFROG For The
Automotive Industry
Brand reputation is critical to car manufacturers’ success, who rely on millions of lines of code to keep their cars functional and safe. Erroneous software can erode safety, performance and quality, and that can be both devastating and expensive. Automotive companies face challenges as they push forward with new technology and software. Software used by the hundreds of embedded control units (ECUs) in cars, are often developed by siloed and distributed teams, with long release cycles. The ability to work collaboratively with data availability and consistency is crucial for agility. Demand for new capabilities requires shorter releases… enter the era of Automotive DevOps.
CHALLENGES FACED IN THE automotive WORLD
Continuous Deployments (CD) and Distribution
This is the big challenge car makers want to overcome, but because of technical, procedural, and regulatory challenges this is hard to do. Complex last mile deployment issues with embedded systems make this challenging. Newer system applications can be easier to master as they can often be automated and systemized.
Security and Compliance with Velocity
Embedded systems in luxury cars now exceed an estimated 100 million lines of code. Ensuring all the code bases are vulnerability free and license compliant is a massive concern. Doing this without putting up barriers and slowing down deployments is the challenge faced across many embedded development teams.
Speed of Production and Software Delivery
Many manufacturers use manual legacy practices to build and verify real-time embedded applications. This is because of the software stack and tools used were created without automation in mind. Building automated processes for these developments can enable speed, agility and control.
Non-Standardized Embedded Systems
Most cars exceed 100 discrete ECUs today, and they’re not standardized like PCs or Cell Phones; they all have their own OS and language ecosystems. It’s important now to have a universal DevOps platform that supports multiple package types including C/C++, Java, NPM, Docker and also operating systems like Linux.
Leading Automotive Institutions Use JFrog
For Their DevOps Implementations
THE JFROG PLATFORM
A Fast lane FOR automotive software development
Automotive manufacturers need to find a way to accelerate productivity & development, ensure quality and reliability and shorten their release cycles. The JFrog Platform is an end-to-end automated DevOps platform ideal for managing and orchestrating all of your distributed software releases from code to production.
Automate your CI/CD Pipelines
JFrog Pipelines is a next-gen centralized command and control capability for all your CI/CD pipelines. It enables automation and orchestration of all your pipeline processes. Keep your existing CI/CD investments as Pipelines integrates with the most common CI/CD Tools and DevOps Technologies.
Eliminate OSS Vulnerabilities from your Code
Trusting your production builds are free of vulnerabilities and license issues is essential. Protect across your pipeline with integration into your IDE, build tools and with easy automation into your ecosystem, with an extensive REST API and flexible CLI.
Universal DevOps Platform
Artifactory and the JFrog Platform support all major programming languages, package managers, and all the popular DevOps technologies. Support for embedded languages like C/C++, Java, .net and Go fit nicely with the embedded nature of automotive ECUs.
Multi-Site Support with Replication & Access Federation
Having hundreds or thousands of developers requires a multi-site topology. Consistency across teams and sites is essential for auditing, quality control and trust. JFrog’s Multi-Site Replication and Access Federation ensures a single-source-of-truth for artifacts and builds across your enterprise.
THE JFROG DIFFERENCE
Comprehensive Integrations
Integrates with most DevOps tools. The steps in a single pipeline can run in multi-OS, multi-architechture nodes, reducing the need to have multiple CI/CD tools.
Too Integrated to Fail
Integrates with your environment giving you the freedom to choose your tool stack. Use Artifactory to unite your CI/CD ecosystem, increase developer productivity and avoid vendor-lock-in.
Universal Security & Compliance
Supports all major package types, understands how to unpack them, and uses recursive scanning to see in all of the underlying layers and dependencies, even those packaged in Docker images and zip files.
