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.

AWS Serverless helps us scale reliably week to week as we move from event to event. Each event brings its own set of complexities from size and scale, and what we need to do. Serverless really allows us the speed, the agility, and the reliability to do that each week.
