Nebula Platform vs Adaptive Autosar

Adaptive AUTOSAR is a collection of specification from AUTOSAR consortium for software running on high performance compute systems. They mainly define a SOA based system for ECUs.

Nebula Platform is a SOA-based vehicle-wide software platform, unlike Adaptive AUTOSAR that targets single ECUs with dependencies on Autosar Classic e.g., Diagnostics. Nebula Platform has a much more concrete set of feature for OEMs, platform and application developers.

Aspect	Nebula Platform	Adaptive AUTOSAR
Target & Compliance	ASIL-D compliance	ASIL-B compliance
Communication	Supports multiple transport protocols	Supports protocols compatible with SOA communication
Language Support	C, C++, Python	C++14 Only
Service Implementation	Complete implenmentation of critical services	Some services may have partial or reference implementations
Real-time Performance	Optimized for real-time, low latency	Designed for real-time, deterministic
API Complexity	Cleaner, simpler APIs for application developers	More complex APIs, especially in modules like Diagnositcs
