So the company again turned to AWS to bring data together in its core data
platform. TRD has begun to migrate all the data to the repository, where it will
be able to easily and quickly perform analytics. This data repository brings the
company's siloed applications into one centralized location, enabling the team
to find the important information needed to make snap decisions during races.
TRD then analyzes data using Amazon Athena, a serverless interactive query
service. It also uses Amazon Kinesis Data Streams (Amazon KDS), a massively
scalable and durable real-time data streaming service. TRD uses Amazon KDS
and other AWS services to collect, process, and analyze real-time streaming
data for timely insights and quick reactions to new information.
Through speedy data analytics, TRD now drives better insights needed to
make key race-time decisions, giving the company a technological edge
over competitors. "We can ingest data as fast as physically possible, process
it however we need to, and present it in a visual way that lets people make
decisions quickly. That is paramount," says Elliott. "And that's something that
our software helps us do."
