How AWS Partners with Formula 1 to Accelerate the Racing Giant’s Cloud Transformation

With an estimated annual audience of at least 500 million, Formula 1 ranks as one of the most popular sports in the world. It’s quite lucrative as well; 2017 revenues hit ~$1.8 billion.

The cars used during the races are incredibly advanced, many housing up to 120 sensors creating three gigabytes of data within a single race. To better leverage all of this data, Formula 1 has partnered with AWS to move the vast majority of its infrastructure to the cloud from on-premise solutions.
