Business Problem
Most popular customer-centric OTA wants to build Right price at Right Time to purchase travel entitlements (Air, Hotel, car) in a very engaging fashion by leveraging the power that comes from combining massive amounts of data and machine learning.
Requirements
- Create parallel processing for pulling data from multiple GDS.
- Build Hotel connectivity for different end points.
- Data aggregation based on trends.
- High throughput, low latency and caching.
Challenges
- Building high performant thread safe code.
- Complex algorithms to observe pricing trends.
- Auto scaling and optimizing utilization of infrastructure.
Solution
- Delivered a consistent connectivity platform by converging several connectivity integrations (eg: Expedia, QuickConnect, Agoda, Sabre & Get-a-room).
- Built abstractions that facilitate common patterns found while searching, selling and booking travel segments.
- Realized auto scalable platforms through hybrid solutions and innovative persistent mechanisms.
Business Outcomes
- 30 %: Decrease connectivity issue.
