Topgolf's needed to leverage the vast amount data captured from over 70+ venues and 3B ball strikes per year to gain insight into player experience, game popularity and system accuracy.

Solution

Dell Technologies end-to-end solutions provide a standardized, scalable IT model to support TEG’s global growth. Scott Shultz, VP Technology Innovation for Topgolf concludes, “It’s astonishing that my six-member infrastructure team runs a billion-dollar-plus business. But with Dell Technologies by our side, we’re doing just that.”

Impact

Shultz’s team analyzes anonymized usage data from the various Topgolf venues and applications to enhance the guest experience and inspire new services. “We’re confident in our future growth plans because Dell Technologies shares its development roadmaps with us,” Shultz says. “This lets us see what innovations are coming so we can dream up ways to take advantage of them." Dell's and AWS partnerships allowed Topgolf to capture operational data at scale, store, analyze and delivery to end users in real-time, driving business decisions.
