The role of security, observability and edge computing in self-driving cars

Chakraborty, Sanchayan (2025) The role of security, observability and edge computing in self-driving cars. World Journal of Advanced Engineering Technology and Sciences, 15 (1). pp. 2328-2333. ISSN 2582-8266

This article explores the critical role of three foundational technologies that enable the safe and efficient operation of autonomous vehicles: security systems, observability solutions, and edge computing infrastructure. It examines how these technologies work in concert to address the unique challenges of self-driving cars, including threat detection and mitigation, performance monitoring, and real-time data processing. The article highlights how telecommunications providers are integrating these capabilities into their networks to create the necessary infrastructure for autonomous vehicle ecosystems. By detailing the technical aspects and performance metrics of these systems, the article demonstrates how advances in these areas are driving progress toward widespread adoption of self-driving technology while ensuring operational safety, reliability, and efficiency.
