SOVD – The New Generation of Vehicle Diagnostics
As bus systems and diagnostic protocols continue to converge, a clear demand has emerged across the industry: standardized programming interfaces that make diagnostic applications and in particular the connection to Vehicle Communication Interfaces (VCIs) interchangeable and future-proof. This is precisely where we come in.
As experts in vehicle diagnostics, we develop solutions that consistently turn this vision into reality. SOVD provides a modern, service-oriented interface that harmonizes, simplifies, and accelerates diagnostic access—independent of manufacturer, hardware, or vehicle architecture.
Our comprehensive technology stack is designed to support this objective.
The D-Server offers a scalable infrastructure that facilitates diagnostic and communication processes.
The OTX Runtime facilitates automated, repeatable test sequences in accordance with international standards.
This combination allows us to integrate in-depth system knowledge with practical software solutions, thereby creating a new level of standardization in vehicle diagnostics.
Our products
SOVD
(Service-Oriented Vehicle Diagnostics)
The new SOVD standard is a modern approach to vehicle diagnostics in which diagnostic data and functions are provided as digital services.
The development of SDVs is being driven by the introduction of EVs and the possibility of installing APPs in current vehicles and is placing new demands on vehicle diagnostics.

D-Server
ISO‑Standard–Compliant Diagnostic Communication Layer
The objective of introducing ISO 22900‑3 (ASAM MCD‑3 D) was to define a universal programming interface for vehicle diagnostics across a wide range of applications. Vehicle diagnostics includes, among other tasks, reading emissions‑relevant data, evaluating fault memory entries of individual electronic control units (ECUs), configuring and calibrating ECUs, and performing software updates.
Highlights
- Full MVCI server compliant with ISO standards
- Highly compressed data base
- Efficient use of storage resources
- Optimized for maximum performance
- Runs on all target devices
- Suitable for embedded and remote diagnostic solutions
- Customizable to meet your specific requirements

OTX-Runtime
Runtime environment for standardized diagnostic process execution (ISO‑compliant)
OTX (Open Test sequence eXchange) was introduced with ISO 13209. The standard defines a programming language that is primarily used to describe diagnostic workflows in the automotive industry. One of the main objectives behind the introduction of OTX was to ensure a high degree of interchangeability of test sequences between vehicle manufacturers and ECU suppliers.
Highlights
- Interchangeable and reusable data format for test sequences
- Specialized for diagnostic applications
- Highly optimized for embedded applications
- Protection of OTX sequences through a compressed, secure data format
- Optimal integration of the ACTIA D‑Server for maximum performance
