Google Cloud Announces Its Partnership With Comair To Provide Seamless Travel Experiences In Sub-Saharan Africa. Google Cloud has announced that it has partnered with the leading South African aviation company, Comair to provide seamless travel experiences in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Google Cloud announced that it is teaming up with Comair, operator of the British Airways brand and the Kulula budget carrier in Sub-Saharan Africa. The collaboration will accelerate the aviation group’s digital transformation plans in line with its mission to deliver seamless travel experiences for customers and help the travel industry regain momentum. Comair completed its infrastructure optimisation plans as it migrated six labor-intensive, on-premise data centers to Google Cloud. The migration of traditional IT infrastructure enables the airline to run key workloads that include important financial data, secure customer records, airplane navigation information, and more—all on the cleanest cloud in the industry.
Niral Patel, Director of Google Cloud Africa, said in a statement, “With the customer positioned at the heart of everything the team does at Comair, we are proud to deliver the cloud infrastructure capabilities and tools that will further engrain the airline’s brand promise to be the easiest to book and pay. Comair’s digital transformation journey started before the pandemic, and was indeed accelerated by it, but the airline had taken a head start to digitization before the global lockdown was even in sight by migrating to the cloud. Also, by accelerating cloud adoption, Comair is able to reduce processing power for its systems and become more sustainable.”
