This collaboration will effectively accelerate the needed improvements for cars to successfully communicate with data centers. Carmakers will find it easy now to observe and uncover a potential failure in any of the components.

NXP Semiconductors N.V. has announced a partnership deal with Amazon Web Services to connect cars to cloud computing services. By revenue, Amazon Web Services is the largest while its new partner NXP Semiconductors appears to be the biggest producer of computing chips to automakers.

Though the details of the partnership will be made available on 19 November 2020, it is said that the new agreement will see NXP Semiconductors coming out with a new chip that will ensure that data is transferred from the car system to the amazon center over the internet for effective operation.

The Executive Vice President and the General Manager of Automotive Processing at NXP Semiconductors, Henri Ardevol in a statement revealed that over-the-air updates and machine learning will be able to help make continuous improvement and new vehicle data insight to go a long way to improve vehicle life cycles. 

This collaboration will effectively accelerate the needed improvements for cars to successfully communicate with data centers. The value of vehicle data would be unlocked as an edge to cloud services would be leveraged according to statements made by Ardevol. Real-time vehicle insights will be one of the most interesting additions provided by the deal. 

Carmakers will find it easy to now observe and uncover a potential failure in any of the components. This will play a key role in reducing service visits by customers and ensure that expensive warranty repairs and recalls become a thing of the past.

NXP Semiconductors with Amazon to Change the Face of the Automotive Industry

The NXP Semiconductors and Amazon Web Services partnership will ensure that new data-driven service revenue is attained as the automotive industry seeks to utilize computing power instead of the usual horsepower. The new focus on computing power can completely materialize when streamlined machine learning, secure connectivity to cloud services, vehicle wide data, and others are considered. 

The deal with NXP Semiconductors is a well-calculated one as the automotive industry has over the years contemplated the effective way of achieving the services of future connected vehicles. Interestingly, the integration of the new S32G vehicle network processor of NXP for service-oriented gateways and the AWS edge and cloud services will provide a lasting answer to this problem. 

AWS IoT Core and AWS IoT Greengrass are leveraged by the new S32G from NXP for a vehicle, cloud data processing, and storage. This ensures that optimized ML Models are built, trained, and deployed. 

NXP Semiconductors has over the years contributed a lot to the goal of seeing a secure connection for a smarter world. This has caused much improvement in its stocks. They have provided several innovative solutions to daily problems that make life safer and better. They have been the backbone of the communication infrastructure market as well as the automotive industry. Their manufactured S32Gp platform has been advanced for the AWS IoT Greengrass. It is expected that their partnership with Amazon Web Services will change the face of the automotive industry.
