Cloud-Based ECU Development on Azure: Start AGL Work Earlier
Webinar recording
About
Early embedded work is often blocked by scarce prototype hardware and lab access, slowing distributed automotive teams. This video shows a cloud setup for Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) development on Azure that lets engineers build, run, and debug software against virtualized targets before physical electronic control units (ECUs) exist. It outlines secure access (Bastion/VPN/ExpressRoute), cloud dev environments, CI/CD automation (Azure DevOps/GitHub), VM-based test execution, and peripheral/hardware emulation with GDB-style debugging for functional validation. Tech leaders should evaluate where cloud emulation can enable parallel work, reduce hardware bottlenecks, and improve traceability via identity, logging, and artifact governance.
