Plan, build, and operate your software-defined vehicle solution with Vector. From first evaluation to production-ready integration, you get the expertise to connect embedded systems, cloud platforms, and third-party services into one working solution.
We support you in designing and implementing end-to-end software-defined vehicle solutions. You combine cloud platform capabilities, embedded software, and system integration into a coherent architecture that works in practice.
Our services are tailored for your engineering teams and architects who need to evaluate, integrate, and scale SDx Cloud, MICROSAR Connect, or your own cloud environment.
From First Idea to Fleet Operation
You need clarity early and reliability later. We support you achieving both.
- Clear decisions from the start – Evaluate platform, modules, and solution scope with concrete guidance
- Faster path to implementation – Configure and integrate end-to-end workflows across device and cloud
- Scalable architectures – Move from proof of concept to fleet-wide deployment with a clear strategy
- Integrated development – Align embedded, cloud, and IT teams around one solution
- Practical know-how – Build internal expertise through workshops, training, and project collaboration
Service Overview
We guide you through the full lifecycle of your software-defined vehicle solution. Start with a clear understanding of the platform and your architecture, then configure end-to-end workflows and integrate them into your existing systems.
Typical workflow
- Evaluate SDx Cloud, individual modules, or integration with your own cloud
- Define an end-to-end architecture across vehicle, backend, and IT systems
- Configure update, telemetry, diagnostic, and security workflows
- Build cloud and embedded applications based on APIs and SDKs
- Roll out features from MVP to fleet scale
Projects move from initial evaluation to hands-on configuration and into production. Along the way, your teams build the expertise to operate and extend the solution independently.
From Challenge to Solution
Challenge
Software-defined vehicle projects require coordination across embedded software, cloud platforms, and IT systems. Teams must align architectures, choose the right platform approach, and manage integration complexity.
Approach
We support you with structured services:
- Getting started workshops to define objectives and architecture
- End-to-end configuration services to connect device and cloud
- Development support for cloud and embedded applications
- Integration of ERP systems, data lakes, and third-party services
Result
You get a working end-to-end solution. Your architecture fits your use case and integrates with your existing environment. Your teams can operate, scale, and extend the system with confidence.
Key Service Areas
Getting Started and Architecture Support
Define your SDx Cloud strategy and architecture.
- Understand platform capabilities and modules
- Identify relevant building blocks for your use case
- Define objectives, roadmap, and system architecture
Architecture Design and Consulting
Design end-to-end architectures across embedded systems, cloud, and third-party domains, regardless of the products or platforms you use.
- Define integration patterns and choose the right technology stack (AWS, Azure, GCP, on-premise, or hybrid)
- Evaluate build, buy, or integrate decisions across the full stack
- Apply Vector's lessons learned from previous SDx Cloud projects
Cloud Application Development
Build cloud-based services on top of SDx Cloud or your own platform.

End-to-End Configuration and Integration
Connect device and cloud and make your end-to-end workflows operational - on the device side with MICROSAR Connect and on the cloud side with SDx Cloud or your own platform.
- Configure update, telemetry, security, and diagnostics workflows with Updater, Observer, Defender, and vService
- Integrate SDx Cloud or your own cloud and build on your existing investments
- Enable cloud-orchestrated rollouts from MVP to fleet-wide deployment, including scheduling and feedback loops
Cloud Integration
Connect SDx Cloud with your IT landscape.
- Integrate ERP systems, data lakes, and third-party services
- Configure data flows and APIs
- Optimize existing integrations for performance and operation
Architecture and Integration
Our approach works with SDx Cloud or within your existing cloud environment. Integration patterns adapt to your architecture and requirements.
We support your integration across the full stack:
- Device layer: MICROSAR Connect and embedded applications
- Cloud layer: SDx Cloud modules or your own cloud platform
- Integration layer: APIs, adapters, and communication interfaces
- IT systems: ERP, data lakes, and external services
Typical data flows include:
- Cloud-initiated rollout of updates and configurations
- Vehicle telemetry and diagnostic feedback to backend systems
- Data exchange between cloud platform and third-party services
