Mobileye: Workload Optimizer Boosts Performance
Project Achtergrond
Mobileye, an Intel company and market leader in advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs) and autonomous vehicles (AVs), relies on cloud optimization to build its new mapping system, cameras, and other AI tools and applications. More than 70 million vehicles worldwide, from companies including BMW, Volkswagen, Ford, and Nissan, use Mobileye for driver assistance. Mobileye’s Road Experience Management (REM) system creates and perpetually updates maps to ensure that drivers and autonomous vehicles have the information they need to travel safely and efficiently.
Probleemstelling van het project
Mobileye’s innovative technologies make huge demands on their hybrid cloud infrastructure. The REM system is compute intensive and requires continuous development to create accurate maps at scale while continually updating a database that maps over 625 million miles. Long development and testing cycles were reducing developer productivity and making it difficult for the REM team to transition from research and development into production. When adding new applications, algorithms, and features, the REM team was forced to compromise between the speed of development and the optimization of code. Transformative value with the Intel Workload Optimizer by Granulate Workload optimization is often costly, disruptive, and time consuming. Most optimization efforts require users to rewrite their code to achieve performance improvements, resulting in time away from a business’s core product development. Mobileye was interested in the potential of autonomous optimization and wanted to see if the Intel Workload Optimizer by Granulate could deliver worthwhile performance gains without consuming valuable development resources. “We did a benchmark on one of Mobileye’s workloads, because they wanted to see the Granulate results for their specific application,” explains Asaf Ezra, co-founder and CEO of Granulate. Within two weeks, Granulate showed Mobileye the benchmarks of their code optimization and, “We were basically blown away,” says Pini Reisman, director, REM Cloud Application. Once Mobileye adopted Granulate, the REM team was impressed with the many benefits that the optimizer provided, beyond the remarkable performance increases and cost savings at AWS.

Doelstelling van het project
Mobileye implemented the Intel Workload Optimizer by Granulate into their hybrid cloud environment, yielding tremendous gains in performance and cost efficiency and faster development cycles for new updates and product releases. Intel Workload Optimizer by Granulate is an autonomous optimization software solution that loads into an existing data center or cloud environment and optimizes resource management without human intervention. Using this tool, Mobileye was able to realize value in a matter of days, with zero code changes on their end.
