Williams Racing Announce KX as an Official Supplier
Williams #racing is delighted to announce a new Official Supplier, #kx, a global leader in real-time streaming analytics.
The agreement will see #kx implement a total analytics solution, combining real-time analytics, a time-series database, complex event processing, machine learning and data visualisation tools in one platform. This will significantly enhance the analytical capabilities of #williams #racing, supporting the continuous development and improvement of the FW43B on track and wider operational performance.
Whether on the track, in the garage or at the factory, the ability to capture and analyse data in real-time is a critical requirement for Formula One teams. The #kx platform gives #williams #racing a single point of access to all data regardless of system, format and location. Designed to be highly scalable, it will simultaneously reduce data capture and reporting times while increasing analytical performance.
Built on kdb+ – the world's fastest time-series database – the #kx platform excels at enabling the near instantaneous analysis of real-time and historic data. It is expected to deliver significant efficiency and utilization benefits right across the team – from maximising regulation wind tunnel testing time to reducing labour intensive tasks.
Tim Hunt, Commercial and Marketing Director for #williams #racing, said: "KX share a similar passion to #williams, one of ambition and success. As we continue to progress as a team, we are delighted to announce this #partnership with #kx, casting a spotlight on real-time streaming analytics. The agreement will see the team continue to develop both on and off the track by improving our analytical capabilities. We look forward to working with #kx throughout the 2021 season and beyond."
Seamus Keating, CEO of #kx, added: "Williams #racing is one of Formula One's most iconic names and we're delighted to be working with them at the beginning of a new chapter in their history. Like #racing cars, #kx is built for speed and efficiency. From our early days working with financial institutions to solve complex data challenges at ultra-low latency, we have since expanded into other industries where the need for the real-time capture and analysis of data is a critical differentiator. Motorsports is known as an industry where milliseconds can make all the difference and we are excited to see what we can achieve together."
