Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for implementing a vehicle shadow service that includes a vehicle and/or vehicle shadow update mechanism. A vehicle shadow management sub-system of the vehicle shadow service includes or interfaces with an interface configured to receive vehicle state change requests. Received requests are stored in an update queue for a vehicle shadow and a validation processor determines whether the received state change requests are valid before sending a given state change request to a vehicle corresponding to the vehicle shadow. In some embodiments, state change requests may be invalidated due to being rendered moot by subsequently received requests, changes in state of the vehicle, expiration, etc. The corresponding vehicle shadow is then updated when a data stream from the vehicle indicates that the requested state change has in fact been implemented at the vehicle.
