Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA): ara::com, SOME/IP and DDS on High-Performance Central Nodes

Unlike classical AUTOSAR with static compile-time signal configurations, the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform is designed for high-performance multi-core processors running POSIX operating systems.

Adaptive platform applications interact via Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA): • Communication Management (ara::com): Provides location-transparent publish-subscribe and client-server communication mechanisms using SOME/IP or DDS protocols. • Execution Management (ara::exec): Orchestrates process lifecycles, resource budgets, and deterministic scheduling. • Update and Configuration Management (ara::ucm): Enables seamless Over-The-Air (OTA) containerized microservice deployments without requiring vehicle reboots.
