Safety-critical & Mixed-criticality ECUs

Canonical is part of the SOAFEE consortium as well as the Eclipse SDV working group, which are at the forefront of defining the reference architecture for mixed-criticality and safety.

Canonical is also contributing to ISO26262 to enable automotive functional safety.

Vehicles need to have the fastest response time to guarantee functional safety. With Real-time Ubuntu, our Linux kernel integrates PREEMPT_RT and guarantees low-latency response time.

Top rated security. Best-in-class isolation

Secure boot, full disk encryption and signed software packages guarantee system integrity.

Ten year security maintenance for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), efficient container confinement and kernel livepatch for rapid rollouts in critical situations.


Compatible with all major architectures

We optimise Ubuntu for all major silicon architectures, so you can choose the ECU platform that fits best.

Develop on Ubuntu today and pick your platform later.

Handle devices and updates remotely

Fully over-the-air device management

Compressed, transactional, signed and simple OTA

Update any system, any device, any day. Future-proof your fleet.

Full OS containerisation means transactional, atomic updates. Data snapshot backup and restore. Signed software integrity. Compressed delta updates.

Complete control. No delayed patches, no partial updates, no unauthorised ECU software.


Snaps and App Store

Snaps are app packages that are easy to install, secure, cross-platform and dependency-free.

Snaps include all required dependencies, so that your apps and processes work flawlessly on all platforms without any required modifications.

With Snapd, app maintenance is seamless and automatic.

You can build, publish, deploy and update easily on any ECU running Linux.
