Our 8. AngularJS/Node.js Project
Client Profile
One of the leading independent travel companies in Canada, itravel2000 offers a range of travel products including flights, cruises, vacation packages, insurance and more. Challenge
As itravel2000 set out to redevelop its online booking platform to align the company’s offering with end customers’ expectations and boost the brand visibility in this highly competitive market, the company was looking for a reliable web application development partner to expand its limited internal resources. With more challenges coming up in the long run, a prospective partner’s technological expertise was a crucial factor. This was where West Elinor Technologies fell in line, with more than 10 years in web development and a track record of web application redesign projects.Solution
The key mission of the project – migration of itravel2000’s entire solution to a new, state-of-the-art platform – in technical terms was translated into web application redesign that drew on the SPA (single page application) approach, as well as cutting-edge technologies and design patterns.The core activities also included creating proprietary APIs that are each responsible for particular information requests, like hotel deals, vacation packages, etc., and for checking the relevance of featured deals. Additionally, the team used the ASP.NET Web API framework to build an umbrella web API that covers all the above mentioned specialized APIs and provides a central point of access to data sourced from around the partnership network of itravel2000.
Results
With more than 50,000 daily visitors and the all-time subscription base of over 400 mln users from around the globe, itravel2000’s online booking platform is its key customer-facing asset that has to ensure impeccable user experience and uninterrupted performance at all times.
