Sabre Corporation, with nearly $3 billion in revenue and customers in 160 countries, is a leading travel technology vendor, connecting travel suppliers and buyers around the globe through innovative software products and next-generation technology solutions.

The Challenge
One of the most critical challenges that Sabre encountered in moving to a cloud-native environment, was the need to complete the migration quickly and without impact to customer experience. This in turn created significant cost efficiency challenges.

Why Akamas?
For Java-based microservice applications, Akamas allowed Sabre to identify the best configuration for the JVM, including memory sizing and garbage collector types, and Kubernetes pod CPU/memory resources.

The Results
Sabre reaped numerous benefits from their collaboration with Akamas, both in terms of enhanced application performance and improved cost efficiency across their cloud-native applications.
