Quickly bring your data to Microsoft Azure

Test fleets generate Terabytes of raw vehicle data that must be easily offloaded with minimum vehicle stop time. Microsoft and Xylon enable test drivers to bring harvested data to globally accessible computing clouds in the shortest possible time. Without hardware modifications, Xylon’s logiRECORDER Automotive HIL Video Logger enables direct plug-in of Microsoft Azure SSDs and full-speed recording of encrypted data. Filled SSDs can be exchanged within seconds and shipped to the nearest Azure region center. The presented solution completely eliminates the time-consuming and costly process of copying data from the logger’s storage to the storage media suitable for cloud services.

Data Handling with Proprietary Data Cartridges

• Acquire field data from a data logger – usually an 8h shift or until SSDs are full
• Remove storage cartridges from the logger and plug into a copy station
• Copy recorded data to MS Azure Data Box Disks (MS Disks) in the required file format and with the BitLocker AES-128 data encryption
• Ship MS Disks to MS Azure data center
• Upload data from MS Disks to Azure Cloud

Xylon-Supported Data Handling with MS Disks

• Directly plug-in MS Azure disks in Xylon’s logiRECORDER Automotive HIL Video Logger
• Remove filled MS Disks and ship to MS Azure data center
• Upload data from MS Disks to Azure Cloud
