Gulf Air and TransSys Solutions announced that they have partnered to enhance Oracle E-Business Suite capabilities and features to utilise latest technologies such as mobility and interface to hybrid cloud.
The agreement was signed by Dr. Jassim Haji, director information technology, Gulf Air and Prabu Balasubramanyan, executive director, TransSys Solutions.
As part of Gulf Air’s digital transformation strategy, the airline is complementing its private cloud with integration with other providers forming their hybrid cloud.
This journey will allow Gulf Air to deploy a hybrid cloud architecture while driving performance and productivity, thereby gaining elasticity in their computing capacity and further optimising their IT spend by moving towards an Opex model.
Gulf Air has adopted an approach wherein both public and private clouds would coexist in their IT environment, which over a period of time would evolve into a hybrid cloud.
“Gulf Air has been one of the early adopters of technology. We have embarked on our digital transformation journey by adopting the hybrid cloud. We are happy to partner with TransSys given their proven knowledge, expertise and years of experience of working with the Aviation industry. We are confident they will be a strong partner in our digital transformation strategy,” Haji said.
By adopting mobility and a hybrid cloud, Gulf Air would be able to make a host of improvements to its service, the company claims.
Among these would be lowering their upfront capital costs, flexibility to access information anytime from anywhere, scalability to grow as the business grows; automated management, security, monitoring, patching and upgrade services and reduced carbon footprint.
