Unisys helps TravelSky to expand power in China’s aviation

BANGALORE, INDIA: TravelSky, the provider of information technology solutions to China’s air travel and tourism industry, has signed a new contract with Unisys to provide expanded processing power for TravelSky’s reservation and distribution systems in China’s aviation sector.

Under the contract, Unisys will provide and implement ClearPath Dorado system as well as additional storage, virtual tape library and OS 2200 operating-environment upgrades.

The power of the implementation will be further boosted using enhanced automation and Unisys Extended Transaction Capacity (XTC) clustering capability to link up to six ClearPath systems and increase transaction processing capacity and redundancy compared to a single–host system.

“As domestic and international air travel continue to grow in popularity in China, increasing the demand on the reservation and distribution applications TravelSky provides China’s air travel industry, we rely on the robust, secure and flexible Unisys ClearPath environment to enable us to process more transactions – quickly and securely,” said a TravelSky senior executive.

Unisys ClearPath Dorado systems are at the heart of TravelSky's IT infrastructure, with Unisys XTC clustering technology providing levels of power, availability, manageability and responsiveness to dynamic changes in business requirements.

In addition, Unisys’ software-based secure partitioning (s-Par®) technology will allow TravelSky to deploy secure environments with predictable performance for mission-critical passenger and cargo solutions by creating dedicated partitions with their own memory, I/O, and storage resources for each workload.
