Virtual vehicle domain control unit (DCU) service and orchestration environments

A method for implementing a remote execution environment for vehicle code packages, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a vehicle that implements a local orchestration environment, a request to deploy a vehicle code package comprising logic and communication mappings at the remote execution environment, wherein the request to deploy the vehicle code package is based on a placement decision made by the local orchestration environment for the vehicle to place the vehicle code package at the remote execution environment, and wherein the remote execution environment has been selected from a plurality of placement locations comprising the local execution environment and the remote execution environment during the placement decision based on a current latency for communication from the local orchestration environment to the remote execution environment;
• performing one or more configuration operations to implement the vehicle at the remote execution environment, wherein the one or more configuration operations comprise dynamically configuring one or more communication interfaces to implement the communication mappings for one or more input sources for the logic and at least one output destination for the logic;
• instantiating, at the remote execution environment, a code execution thread for the vehicle code package that has been selected to be placed at the remote execution environment based on the placement decision;
• executing, at the remote execution environment, code included in the vehicle code package via one or more computing devices that implement the remote execution environment, wherein the execution of the code uses input data received by the logic from the one or more input sources via the one or more dynamically configured communication interfaces;
• and
• providing data resulting from the execution of the code of the vehicle code package at the remote execution environment to one or more computing devices installed in the vehicle that implement the local orchestration environment for the vehicle, wherein at least one of the one or more dynamically configured communication interfaces provide the resulting data to the local orchestration environment for the vehicle.

One or more non-transitory, computer-readable, storage media storing program instructions that, when executed on or across one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• implement a local orchestration environment at a vehicle;
• receive, from the vehicle that implements the local orchestration environment, a request to deploy a vehicle code package comprising logic and communication mappings at a remote execution environment, wherein the request to deploy the vehicle code package is based on a placement decision made by the local orchestration environment for the vehicle to place the vehicle code package at the remote execution environment, and wherein the remote execution environment has been selected from a plurality of placement locations comprising the local execution environment and the remote execution environment during the placement decision based on a current latency for communication from the local orchestration environment to the remote execution environment;
• perform one or more configuration operations to implement the vehicle code package at the remote execution environment, wherein the one or more configuration operations comprise dynamically configuring one or more communication interfaces to implement the communication mappings for one or more input sources for the logic and at least one output destination for the logic;
• instantiate, at the remote execution environment, a code execution thread for the vehicle code package that has been selected to be placed at the remote execution environment based on the placement decision;
• execute, at the remote execution environment, code included in the vehicle code package, wherein the execution of the code uses input data received by the logic from the one or more input sources via the one or more dynamically configured communication interfaces;
• and
• cause data resulting from the execution of the code of the vehicle code package at the remote execution environment to be provided to one or more computing devices installed in the vehicle that implement the local orchestration environment for the vehicle, wherein at least one of the one or more dynamically configured communication interfaces provide the resulting data to the one or more computing devices installed in the vehicle that implement the local orchestration environment for the vehicle.
