InterCloud

Airline & Airport

Consistent data across airline and airport systems
at every hour of the day

Airlines and airports depend on dozens of specialized systems that must remain consistent with one another at every hour of the day. InterCloud keeps those systems consistent and each interface visible. We build, integrate and monitor the enterprise platforms that support them: finance and procurement, crew and ground-service administration and passenger-facing websites.

Challenges

Challenges in Aviation Operations

  • Operations across many systems

    Reservations, departure control, crew scheduling, maintenance, catering, ground handling and finance each run in a separate system, frequently from different vendors and different decades. Data must pass between them reliably and in the correct sequence.

  • Safety and regulatory reporting

    Civil aviation authorities, ICAO-aligned safety management and IATA standards create recurring reports, audits and record-keeping obligations. Records must be complete, traceable and available on request.

  • 24/7 availability

    Flights depart at all hours and across time zones. A maintenance window that suits head office falls in peak time elsewhere in the network, so platforms must be designed for continuous operation.

  • Cost pressure and complex finance

    Fuel, aircraft leases, maintenance reserves, multi-currency revenue and interline settlements make aviation finance more complex than in most industries. Finance teams require accurate and timely consolidation throughout the month.

How We Help

Keep Operations, Finance and Passenger Channels Consistent

Our Approach

New Capability While Current Systems Keep Operating

Aviation systems are seldom replaced in a single step, and a staged approach carries less risk. We begin by mapping the data flows between your existing systems, then build an integration layer with open REST APIs and message-based interfaces so that new capabilities can be added while the current systems continue to operate.

Every interface is monitored from the first release. When a downstream system falls behind or an interface fails, SnowTrack raises the alert before the problem reaches the departure gate.

Deployments are scheduled around the operational calendar, with rollback paths and no-downtime releases on AWS, so that change does not depend on a quiet period that rarely occurs in aviation.

  • Interface mapping and an API-first integration layer
  • Audit trails for every change to operational and financial records
  • Role-based access for crew, ground staff, finance and management
  • Hosting on AWS with monitoring and on-call alerting included

Outcomes

Typical Outcomes

Airlines and airports typically engage InterCloud to achieve the following outcomes.

  • One consistent view of operational and financial data across systems that were previously disconnected
  • Regulatory and safety reports produced from system records in place of spreadsheets
  • Interface failures detected and resolved before they affect passengers
  • A faster month-end close, with multi-currency consolidation handled in the platform
  • Procurement and spare-part inventory controlled through approvals and full traceability
  • Staff and passenger questions answered by AI assistants that draw on approved documents

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can InterCloud integrate with our existing reservation, departure control or maintenance systems?

Yes. Our aviation work is built around integration with the systems you already operate. GlowScale exposes open REST APIs, and we build the connectors, file exchanges and message interfaces required to keep your core aviation systems as the system of record where that is appropriate.

How do you handle availability for a 24/7 operation?

Platforms are hosted on AWS across multiple availability zones, released without downtime and monitored by SnowTrack, with alerts sent to your on-call team and to ours. Maintenance is scheduled with you around the operational calendar.

Do you work with airports and aviation service companies as well as airlines?

Yes. Ground handling, catering, cargo, MRO and airport operators share the same requirements for integrated operations, reliable finance and continuous availability, and our products apply to them in the same way.
