During the Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix over the weekend, I popped down to Caterham’s garage to get up close with how Dell provides the complex IT systems needed to power Caterham’s data processing needs.
Dell and Intel are global sponsors and technology partners of the Caterham F1 Team.
To provide the computing resource needed at the circuit, Caterham uses Dell’s “Active System” – a converged “Half-rack” housing all servers, storage and connectivity.
Impressions:
A race weekend generates some 60GB of data, all of which goes through the “half-rack”.
The half-rack weighs about 800kg which is a drastic reduction from the 2 tonnes that a traditional trackside computing set-up accounts for.
With the impending roll-out of Dell VRTX, the set-up will be even more compact and weigh only about 100kg.
This is important given the limited space available in the garage and costs of shipping equipment ($250 USD/kg) between circuit venues.
All the computers are non-ruggedised, commercially available off the shelf systems – keeping cost, bulk and weight down, while making replaceability easier.
These include 30 virtual machines on Dell PowerEdge R620 & R720, 10 Dell Force10 PowerConnect switches, 25TB of trackside storage using EqualLogic and server platforms utilising SSDs.
In addition, there are some 100 Dell Latitude laptops, including Dell XPS and Latitude 10 tablets; as well as 20 high-powered Dell Precision mobile workstations.
What if the half-rack fails?
Dell has also implemented a disaster recovery system (DRS) to continue running the F1 cars in such a contingency.
The DRS comprises a Dell PowerEdge R720xd server for “snap-shotting” virtual machines, a Dell PowerEdge R210, a SonicWall firewall, and an Artist node to run the intercom system.
With this set-up, Dell has made Caterham one of the leading F1 teams in terms of consolidated and virtualised trackside computing.

Offering a new model for Ultrabook users, McAfee launches the industry’s first unlimited cross-device security service with facial and voice recognition for consumer devices.
Available from 9 June 2013.
Check out the latest cross-device security service from McAfee and Intel.
McAfee LiveSafe service uses cutting-edge facial and voice recognition technology to safeguard users’ data, identity and all their devices.
Pricing and Availability
Beginning in June 2013, McAfee LiveSafe service will be available through select retailers for S$59 for a 12-month subscription when purchased with a new PC or tablet, and S$99.95 for a 12-month subscription for consumers’ existing PCs and tablets.
Minimum subscription period is 12 months or multiples of 12 months.
McAfee LiveSafe will come pre-installed on Ultrabook devices and PCs from Dell in Singapore starting on 9 June, 2013.
A recent global survey conducted by McAfee revealed that more than 40 per cent of households own five or more Internet-enabled devices, which contributes significantly to a user’s risk of exposure to online threats.
McAfee LiveSafe service offers a comprehensive approach to security, while providing consumers with a simple Web-based dashboard to centrally manage security on all of their PCs, Macs, smartphones and tablets.
To increase the level of consumer security, McAfee LiveSafe service also includes a cloud-based “safety deposit box”, called “McAfee Personal Locker”.
McAfee LiveSafe
The McAfee Personal Locker uses facial and voice recognition to authenticate a user’s identity so that they can securely store sensitive, personal information such as financial records, drivers licenses and passports.
It also allows users to easily and securely manage their passwords and automatically log into all their online accounts from any of their devices.
The survey also revealed that globally more than 50 per cent of consumers spend at least 15 hours a week, or two hours a day, using their devices for personal reasons.
