Client Background
Aston Martin F1 is the Formula One racing team representing the iconic British luxury automotive manufacturer, Aston Martin. With a rich history in the automotive industry, Aston Martin is renowned for producing elegant and powerful sports cars. The team’s participation in Formula One showcases their commitment to pushing boundaries and achieving success in the world of Grand Prix racing. Led by a team of talented engineers, drivers, and industry experts, Aston Martin F1 combines experience and expertise to optimize performance on and off the track. Through their presence in Formula One, Aston Martin F1 aims to deliver thrilling racing performances, forge partnerships, and strengthen the Aston Martin brand globally. With a strong heritage and a relentless focus on innovation, Aston Martin F1 embodies the spirit of excellence and serves as a captivating symbol of automotive performance.
The Opportunity
KSB Technologies were entrusted by Aston Martin F1 to successfully create a “Vanilla” Azure Integration Platform. This foundational platform has now been set and serves as the springboard for further development and diverse use cases. A significant consideration was the Formula 1 cost cap, a crucial business constraint that demanded astute financial management of the development, manufacturing, and operation of your race cars. Any overspend, even if unintentional, would attract stringent penalties. We successfully tackled various use cases that were identified, including People processes (onboarding of starters, internal movers, and managing leavers), the transition of parts from Design to Manufacturing, and management of Goods Inward. The key systems we interfaced with include PLM (design) and IFS (Manufacturing / ERP / People). The Azure Integration Services were the chosen technology stack, and we leveraged its myriad capabilities to drive this project to its successful conclusion.
Key Features
Integration Platform-as-a-Service
Providing a suite of cloud services enabling users to create, manage, and orchestrate complex workflows across disparate applications and data sources.
Low-code development
Facilitating rapid application development and deployment with minimal hand-coding, reducing the complexity of the programming environment.
Consumption-based pricing
You only pay for the resources and services you use, enabling cost efficiency and scalability.
SOAP to REST conversion
Simplify SOAP to REST conversion, enhancing interoperability and the ease of integration with modern web services.
API Management, including security and discoverability
API Management capabilities, including ensuring the security of APIs, providing a developer portal for API discoverability, and monitoring API usage.
Support for event-driven architectural patterns
Allowing services to efficiently respond to changes in state and trigger processes in a decoupled fashion for improved scalability and reliability.
Excellent observability and supportability
Enhanced observability and supportability, offering detailed insights into application performance and health, and robust support structures for troubleshooting and resolution.
The Impact
This project was successfully delivered, demonstrating these capabilities within the context of two test use cases that verified the platform. These tests served as effective smoke tests, provided as part of the platform. The platform offered a complete technology stack based on Azure Integration Services, utilizing Platform as a Service (PaaS) based services.
