About the thematic ...
Amadeus has started operating during the 90s’ based on mainframes and associated network components which were the top-notch technologies at that time. This successfully led to the generation of the first airline bookings entirely processed by the new European GDS (Global Distribution System)!
The company quickly became a major player in the travel industry worldwide and has always undertaken massive technical migrations of the infrastructure to sustain product evolution including Unix Super Computer, Linux Pizza boxes.. the network evolution has also been key to ensure proper service distribution to the various customers, with Internet introduction but also via other technologies including GWAN. 1+M TPS have even been reached!
The “Cloud” is becoming the corner stone of many big IT companies worldwide. Which benefit a company can expect from the Cloud? How do we proceed to move to the Cloud ?
