PGA TOUR Delivers Win, Cut Probability Analytics Across Multiple Platforms using Amazon ECS with AWS Fargate

Learn how the PGA TOUR built a novel ML-powered analytics model on AWS which provides real-time insights to its audience and creates an immersive viewing experience.

The PGA TOUR introduced Win, Cut Probability, a novel ML-powered analytics model that provides real-time insights into the likelihood of outcomes during tournaments. Powered by AWS, advanced data analytics, cloud infrastructure, and serverless services, the Win, Cut Probability model measures a player’s chances of advancing in and winning a tournament. Using Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) with AWS Fargate to run thousands of simulations and process nearly four billion records, the PGA TOUR can take advantage AWS’s elasticity, run their model quickly and scale as needed, while offloading the operational overhead of infrastructure management to AWS.

To learn more about how the PGA TOUR was able to drive these outcomes, read this blog.

    European League of Football Transforms Production, Cuts Carbon Footprint Using AWS

    The European League of Football wanted to change the way it brought matches to the viewing public. Just 3 months before the start of the new American football season it decided to shift to remote production. It looked to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help it make this transition. Moving from labor-intensive on-site production that relied on a team of thousands, it was able to centralize production from its Munich office and produce 69 of its 99 league matches remotely. Using AWS, the organization is increasing efficiency without compromising quality, says chief commercial officer Marcel Mohaupt. It’s also driving sustainability—reducing its carbon footprint by 300 tons to date.
