Can Docker Keep Up with the Speed of Self-Driving Cars?

In order to improve modularity, scalability, and real-time performance, this study proposes a microservice-based architecture for software-defined autonomous cars that makes use of containerization. The suggested solution, which builds on the ROS 2 framework and Autoware software, separates functional modules like planning, perception, and sensing within lightweight containers that are coordinated by Docker and k3s.
