RDKM provides a collaboration zone facility for SoCs to facilitate easier engineering of RDK based devices. The collaboration zone will help SoCs to work with OEMs, RDKM and any 3rd party along with a common space to develop & integrate, manage and verify the device. The zone includes facilities for code management, a confluence based RDK Wiki for knowledge management & sharing, a JIRA for tracking activity progress, issues as well as to manage the activities, a test setup to validate devices. The access restrictions implemented will help the collaboration zone to be accessible only for the authorized personnel thereby guarding any sensitive information related to SoC/OEM/Third party.
Roles & Responsibilities
A table explaining the roles & responsibilities of SoC & RDKM in the collaboration zone is given below:
# | Activity | Owner | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | RDKM | RDKM will setup Collaboration space, access restrictions | |
2 | SoC | JIRA project. SoC will be the owner for the JIRA project | |
3 | SoC/RDKM | RDKM will create the space and SoC push the code changes | |
4 | SoC | Create necessary device specific HAL implementation for porting RDK into Accelerator | |
5 | SoC | Which SDK version to be used. RDKM will support the integration with SoC libraries | |
6 | SoC | Manifest for building the accelerator | |
7 | UI/UX(only for RDK licensee) | RDKM/SoC | Comes with pre-integrated UI’s, SoC and RDKM will discuss on the default UI |
8 | Create RDK build from CMF GIT | SoC/ RDKM | Both teams work together to build Accelerator from CMF |
9 | Provide Devices to RDKM team | SoC | |
10 | Device flashing instructions / recovery mechanisms | SoC | SoC should share the device flashing instruction |
11 | RDKM/SoC | RDK Certification Suite | |
12 | Monthly release & tagging | SoC | Monthly tagging and release with stakeholders along with test results |

| How to create a collaboration zone |
It is expected that SoC has already obtained a license to work with RDKM (If not, SoC can send a mail to support@rdkcentral.com to start off with the discussions).
With this user account an INFRA ticket can be raised at https://jira.rdkcentral.com to create a collaboration repo. The ticket should contain the details for:
- Location of collaboration zone
- Collaboration zone access groups/members

Product Engineering
Once the product features are decided, the device engineering can be started. SoC needs to decide on the hardware layout that incorporates components to the target board. Device will be categorized as Low Profile and High Profile device based on the hardware capabilities. In a low profile device 4k support might be optional but it is expected to have 4k support in high profile device.
