Kingfisher to Upgrade its IT Infrastructure

Mumbai: In lieu with its plans to go international by starting flights to the US and UK, Kingfisher Airlines Limited (KAL) has tied up with Tata Indicom for one more leased line and virtual private network to ensure smooth transfer of data to its shared servers hosted by Sabre in Tulsa, US. Both will be functional from end January, says Samarendra Mohanty, manager - IT infrastructure, Airports, KAL.
KAL's data centers are linked to racks at Dhirubhai Ambani Knowledge City (DAKS) in Navi Mumbai. Reliance and BSNL transfer the data from these racks to Sabre server over leased lines or internet through the international protocol leased circuits (IPLC) via SITA SC. Sabre stores data for KAL on its servers, and also acts as its disaster recovery platform. The two companies use the Multi Protocol Label Switches for data transfer from the airports to the central office in Mumbai.
