Data In Motion has been commissioned by the Sovereign Tech Fund to modernize the OSGi ecosystem over the next 12 months.
Open source infrastructure underpins much of the software world, but it often goes underfunded. That is exactly the gap that the Sovereign Tech Agency was created to close, by using a range of dedicated programs, including the Sovereign Tech Fund. OSGi got selected as one of the technologies to be improved.

Google has announced an updated version of its open source Android Automotive operating system designed for software-defined vehicles. Previously limited to in-car infotainment systems, Android Automotive is now being extended to support non-safety-critical components within the vehicle’s internal computing architecture, broadening its role as an “open infrastructure.” This strategic move comes with a new and straightforward name: Android Automotive OS SDV, short AAOS SDV. As platforms like this evolve into critical infrastructure, governance matters as much as code.
