In Formula 1, milliseconds define the difference between a podium finish and a DNF. In this closing keynote, we pull back the curtain on McLaren’s "architecture of speed," exploring how real-time analytics, edge computing, and infrastructure observability converge to drive championship-caliber, data-driven decision-making. Join Sarah Walker, CEO, Cisco UK and Ireland; and Dan Keyworth, Executive Director of Performance Technology, McLaren Racing, as they break down the edge-to-factory pipeline that powers one of the world's most data-intensive sports: - The lap-time discipline: How a "ruthless" focus on lap-time correlation streamlines AI adoption and ensures every technology investment delivers measurable performance gains. - Edge-to-factory pipeline: Leveraging real-time telemetry from over 300 sensors to optimize tire strategy, simulation evolution, and race-day scenario planning. - Human-machine collaboration: Navigating the intersection of machine intelligence and human judgment; why the final pit-wall call remains a human prerogative in an era of automated insights. - Observability as a differentiator: Utilizing proactive performance monitoring to resolve infrastructure and application bottlenecks before they impact vehicle performance. - A culture of learning: Cultivating a "win or learn" mindset to maintain a competitive edge within high-pressure, high-stakes environments. Discover how to transform complex, high-volume data into the actionable intelligence required to drive organizational decision-making under extreme pressure. 0:00 – Inside McLaren's Edge-to-Factory Architecture 4:16 – Speed vs. Cost: Decisions Under a Fixed Budget 6:47 – Real-Time Decisioning & Race Strategy Modeling 9:38 – When the Human Overrides the Model: The Sochi Crash 11:08 – Observability & the "Win or Learn" Culture 15:03 – Audience Q&A Related links: Watch the sessions → https://experiences.cisco.com/highspeedai/?dtid=osclytb001772 See the partnership in action → https://www.cisco.com/site/us/en/about/why-cisco/mclaren-racing.html?dtid=osclytb001772 Prepare for the AI era → https://www.cisco.com/site/us/en/solutions/artificial-intelligence/critical-infrastructure/index.html?dtid=osclytb001772 Discover how Cisco is transforming industries with cutting-edge technology and business-driven innovation.
