Toyota Motor Vietnam, one of Vietnam’s largest automobile manufacturers, is partnering with Synology to strengthen its data management infrastructure for its growing data storage and resiliency demands.
Toyota Motor Vietnam is deploying Synology’s data management infrastructure as a comprehensive solution to enhance business resilience and to achieve a 75% savings in data backup costs.
Toyota Motor Vietnam deployed Synology data management systems to securely store hundreds of terabytes of data that are generated from assembling tens of thousands of vehicles per year.
“Synology’s storage solution has increased our business resilience. Synology is reliable, secure, and provides future-proofing scalability for growing data needs,” said Bui Ta Hoan, IT Division Head at Toyota Motor Vietnam.
Together with Synology’s high availability and remote data protection features, Toyota Motor Vietnam’s IT infrastructure is now more resilient against disruptions.
The impetus for the rollout comes from the growth of production scale at Toyota Motor Vietnam over the years, which resulted in the need for more data storage for operation services and crucial data backups.
To safeguard their data from potential threats like ransomware, natural disasters, and human errors, Toyota Motor Vietnam sought a disaster-recovery solution.

The electric vehicle (EV) battery is one of the critical automotive technologies that have successfully scaled to support the e-mobility boom. Hwee Yng Yeo at Keysight Technologies shares her insights on ensuring quality of EV batteries from blueprint to production – in this Part 2 of a two-part commentary.
* Check out Part 1 here.
Design and test for battery cells and high-power battery packs are important in ensuring the quality of EV batteries from blueprint to production.
Once a new battery cell design is ready, it enters the mass production step, which is evolving rapidly.
According to a McKinsey report, if demand for battery cells continues to increase at 30% annually, the global market will need another 90 gigafactories, as of current capacity, to support vehicle electrification over the next decade.
Cell cycling and aging are the most time-consuming stages of the complex battery cell manufacturing process.
As the Americas and Europe catch up with China and Korea to manufacture electric vehicle batteries closer to their end markets, billions of dollars are poured into ramping up gigafactory production, which is a complex process, as illustrated above.
