Leading provider of open source solutions, Red Hat, announced that Amadeus is building its own highly available, self-service, automated cloud platform – Amadeus Cloud Services – on OpenShift Enterprise, Red Hat’s award-winning private cloud application platform.
Amadeus wanted to update the platform that connects all of these stakeholders, and that enables its travel industry customers to access content and travel tools from a single source.
“At Amadeus we want to continue to get much closer to our customers from a technological standpoint; to deliver applications more quickly, and to provide a much more flexible platform that can adapt to change easily and can accommodate different business models in the process. Although we are still in the early stages of deployment, we have seen already that the flexibility of the OpenShift platform and the support we have received from Red Hat has allowed us to begin to take our application to the next level and expand it to a wider customer base,” Dietmar Fauser, VP Architecture, Quality and Governance at Amadeus.
As part of the project, Amadeus is increasing availability of its leading-edge platform, while driving further reductions in latency at the same time. Once fully deployed, Amadeus also expects Amadeus Cloud Services to further streamline operations through automation while reducing the time to market for new services.
