Connected car services provider 4943 Airbiquity is to partner with software technology specialist Arynga to enable remote software update campaigns for connected car systems and components from the cloud.

They claim that ability to plan and execute cloud-based software update campaigns will provide significant financial benefits to automakers in the years ahead as vehicles are increasingly engineered to receive them, in addition to vehicle enhancements for consumers purchasing connected cars.

Automakers will also gain the ability to proactively deliver software updates that remedy security breaches, as well as enhance vehicle performance, features, and services contributing to post-purchase customer satisfaction and brand loyalty.

According to Leon Hong, chief operating officer at Airbiquity, cloud-based software updates represent a huge opportunity for automakers and consumers alike that is unique to connected cars. He said, "The Arynga partnership is a first step towards our ability to deliver a comprehensive software management solution for cars that's as seamless as we've come to expect for gaming consoles, smartphones, and other consumer electronics devices. Airbiquity is committed to developing software update management technology so our automotive customers can execute software update campaigns for critical vehicle systems like powertrain, braking, climate control, and infotainment using the Choreo service delivery platform."

Walter Buga, chief executive officer and founder of Arynga, commented, "Development of Arynga's CarSync OTA update management technology, and integration with Airbiquity's Choreo platform, is a long-term play. We look forward to continue working with Airbiquity to bring the most innovative and cost effective solutions to the automotive market."
