The eSync Alliance is a global automotive initiative established to build a secure, multi-vendor platform for end-to-end over-the-air (OTA)[1][2][3] updating and data services for the connected car, with a global network of participating suppliers[4] [5][6]
History[edit]
In June of 2017, Excelfore publicly announced[7] it would work with several partner companies to form the eSync Alliance as an independent trade association. The aim of the eSync Alliance is to bring automakers, Tier-1 integrators, module and software suppliers into a mutually beneficial partnership to build eSync compliant solutions for the entire vehicle.[8][9]
In February of 2018, Excelfore announced[10] that Rick Kreifeldt, industry executive and former founding chairman of AVNU, joined the eSync Alliance as Executive Director.[11][12]
In August of 2018, the eSync Alliance was incorporated as a non-profit consortium, with 5 founding member companies: Alpine, Excelfore, Hella, Molex and ZF. In September of 2018 the eSync Alliance announced[13] the election of officers and management for 2018/2019, and the formation of it’s first two working groups: Technical Working Group (TWG), and Marketing Working Group (MWG).
In April of 2019, the eSync Alliance announced[14] the release of Version 1.0 of the eSync Compliance Specifications. The specifications total nearly 400 pages and consist of Architecture, Requirements, Interfaces and Security.
In June of 2019, the eSync Alliance joined the Connected Vehicle Trade Association (CVTA) as an Associate Member.[15]
In June of 2020, the eSync Alliance announced that Mike Gardner, Founder and President of mG Consulting, was appointed as Executive Director.[16]
Software Architecture[edit]
The eSync platform is comprised of components in the cloud and in the vehicle. The eSync Server is in the cloud, the eSync Client is in the vehicle and multiple eSync Agents for end devices are in the vehicle.[17][18]
Structure[edit]
The 5 founding companies of the eSync Alliance each hold one seat on the Board of Directors[19]. Additional board members may be elected by the membership during the Alliance annual general meeting. Current members of the alliance include Alpine, DSA, Excelfore, Faurecia, Hella, Joynext, Mobica, Molex, R Systems and ZF.[20][21][22][23][24][25]
