Modern vehicles are connected with the Internet through a range of wireless cellular network technologies. This provides the basis for many novel applications and use-cases towards intelligent vehicles, offering enhanced vehicle safety, traffic management, and driver and passenger convenience capabilities. The connectivity further enables new distributed software architectures that can provide solutions to existing challenges in the field of automotive software engineering. This paper introduces the approach of an Automotive Service Delivery Platform, based on the Machine-to-Machine Communication Service Architecture. Experiences and findings are presented, gained by implementing core elements of the proposed architecture prototypically. This implementation makes apparent the range and capabilities of current Machine-to-Machine Service Architecture and describes remaining challenges to facilitate efficient distributed automotive services.
