Microservices and containerization – concepts embraced by Marelli in the digital twin creation process – allow for further optimization of software development operations, in some cases enabling the realization of a single software update for multiple products, regardless of hardware design and operating system, decoupling hardware and software. Overall, Marelli’s adoption of digital twins revolutionizes software development and validation, enabling cost savings, accelerated timelines, and improved efficiency in the automotive industry’s path toward software-defined vehicles.
