Summary: A nice win for Azure as all Nissan LEAF models and Infiniti models in Europe will have the Connect Telematics Systems (CTS) powered by Microsoft Azure’s cloud infrastructure. Nissan is doing some interesting things here like using mobile phones to turn on and adjust climate controls and set charging functions remotely even when the vehicle is powered down. Nissan pointed to enterprise-grade security and compliance being a selling point, specifically citing the cloud privacy standard ISO 27018, which Microsoft is in compliant with.
