Modernizing our data platform
unlocks the promise of advanced analytics with Google Cloud
unlocks the promise of advanced analytics with Google Cloud
Running a business today is all about managing dynamic data. Travinto wanted to make better use of platform services that could develop, run and manage applications in the cloud and make data more visible and secure. Data empowers our people and drives innovation for our evolving business. After just three years of use, the Travinto Global IT organization recognized its analytics platform was fast becoming obsolete. The platform was managed by Travinto but hosted in the cloud. Yet, increasingly, it was difficult to upgrade and grow, creating greater overheads for managing storage and presenting a high learning curve for developers. We were struggling to stay technologically current. Our people were spending valuable time on operations, troubleshooting and maintenance instead of generating insights to drive our business. Travinto made the strategic decision to move to Google Cloud’s Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model to support our IT strategy to be platform powered, cloud first and intelligence driven. The program team needed to determine how to create a secure, cost-effective and scalable architecture in the cloud while also driving the migration of data and applications from the legacy system. Using Google Cloud, we could modernize data capabilities to unlock the promise of advanced analytics, increase cost savings via a pay-as-you-go model and drive cutting-edge performance that enables a digital Travinto.
