Tech  - Soft­ware­Fact­ory at a lead­ing auto­mot­ive soft­ware company

Ensur­ing scalab­il­ity, cost-effect­ive­ness, and reliability

• Pipelines Com­pute Power Needs

A lead­ing auto­mot­ive soft­ware com­pany set out to meet the high pro­cessing power demands required for devel­op­ing embed­ded sys­tems soft­ware. To achieve this, they imple­men­ted a cloud-based solu­tion focused on scalab­il­ity, cost-effect­ive­ness, ten­ant isol­a­tion, stand­ard­iz­a­tion, and ease of setup — all to enhance developer productivity.

• Ver­sion Con­trol System

The com­pany required a ver­sion con­trol sys­tem (VCS) that adheres to industry stand­ards, ensures con­fid­en­ti­al­ity and com­pli­ance with internal enter­prise policies, sup­ports tera­bytes of data, and handles high load with com­plex CI pipelines. This was crit­ical to safe­guard­ing the intel­lec­tual prop­erty cre­ated by a global team of over 20,000 developers.

• Site Reli­ab­il­ity Engineering

There was a cru­cial need to estab­lish a Site Reli­ab­il­ity Engin­eer­ing (SRE) prac­tice — includ­ing incid­ent man­age­ment pro­cesses, a robust observ­ab­il­ity stack, and clearly defined alert­ing mech­an­isms. This ini­ti­at­ive aimed to cham­pion sys­tem reli­ab­il­ity and drive con­tinu­ous com­mu­nic­a­tion and improve­ment across teams.

To over­come these chal­lenges, the com­pany relied heav­ily on synvert to get the job done.
