Japanese regional carrier Fuji Dream Airlines and IBS Software have collaborated to transform and seamlessly migrate airline operations to a cloud-native platform.
This partnership is said to be a “significant step” in IBS Software’s mission to modernise airline operations in APAC.
With a focus on enhancing operational efficiency and scalability for the airline, IBS Software has championed the migration of Fuji Dream Airlines to the AWS cloud.
This migration from the on-premises Tokyo data centre to the AWS environment unlocks a multitude of benefits for Fuji Dream Airlines. It ensures higher availability, reliability, and business continuity through multiple zones of availability in the region with AWS’s public cloud infrastructure.
The move to the cloud also facilitates dynamic hardware and software resource availability required to support flexible business operations, and provides reliable central monitoring of KPIs, visibility, and control over technical disruptions, thus enabling proactive management of issues.
Additionally, it offers enhanced performance and responsiveness during mission-critical business operations, giving Fuji Dream Airlines the tools to deliver on-time performance to passengers and reduce operational costs.
IBS Software’s Aviation Operations Solutions (AOS) team finished the SaaS uplift for Fuji Dream Airlines with minimal disruptions to the operations.
It wrapped the entire process within 48 hours without any outages.
Mr. Satoshi Unno, general manager, flight operation department of Fuji Dream Airlines, said: “IBS Software’s commitment to excellence and expertise has played a pivotal role in ensuring a seamless migration process.
“We eagerly anticipate harnessing the advantages of cloud nativity to elevate our operations and provide extraordinary experiences for our passengers. It’s a pleasure to embark on this journey with a partner who shares our unwavering passion for innovation.”
Julian Fish, senior vice president & head of aviation operations solutions of IBS software, said: “At IBS Software we are actively working to phase out our physical data centres, as we transition our infrastructure towards public cloud. With these steps, not only will we enhance operational efficiency for our customers, but we will have a positive impact on the individual passenger.
“Through cloud native delivery and collaborations, IBS Software equips airlines to focus on their customers, while we handle the maze-like complexity of aviation technology ecosystems.”
