Picture this: You’re an F1® race strategist sitting on the F1® Pit Wall in Monaco. Your car is flying past at over 200 mph, and you need to call a pit stop right now. The problem? The video feed on your screen is running 12 seconds behind live action. In Formula 1®, a 12-second delay can cost a championship.
That split-second gap was the ultimate challenge Globant set out to solve as Formula 1®’s Official IT Systems Integration Partner.
Rethinking Racing Intelligence with Cloud Technology
Instead of just building another video dashboard, Globant engineered the Team Content Delivery System (TCDS) on AWS, a private, ultra-secure ecosystem designed specifically for the high-pressure reality of motorsport engineering.
Here is how the tech stack changes the game:
- Real-Time Decisions: Powered by Amazon Interactive Video Service, video latency dropped from 12+ seconds to under 5, giving engineers and remote factory teams near-instant visibility of over 30 live video and audio feeds.
- Smart Data Processing: Using AWS Elemental MediaLive, AWS Elemental MediaPackage, and Amazon DynamoDB, live footage is automatically cataloged and synced, allowing teams to compare driver lap times and corners on the fly.
- Scalable & Secure Infrastructure: Built on Amazon EKS and protected by Amazon Cognito, the system dynamically handles massive race-day traffic spikes while guaranteeing total data privacy for every single team.
- Human-Centric UX: Globant stripped away interface noise, designing a streamlined UI that reduces cognitive fatigue during peak race pressure.
Leveling the Playing Field
Beyond cutting latency and archiving over 7,500 hours of track video across 22 global races, TCDS achieved something even bigger: it democratized technology across all 11 F1® teams.
Historically, massive budgets meant better data systems for top-tier constructors. Today, every team has access to the same high-powered video and data infrastructure, ensuring that winning comes down to raw talent, execution, and strategy.
