The world market depends on the smooth flow of commerce made possible through real-time transaction processing. The entire travel industry owes its current place in the global economy to transaction processing systems, without which they could not exist in their present form. Transaction processing systems are the core of the various industries for decades and the prevalence of these systems has closely followed the rise of business computing. Many of such systems that were installed years ago are still in use because of their proven strengths.

Transaction Processing Facility (TPF)

Business NeedMany Travel and Financial Institutions, large or medium in size, continue to rely on legacy technologies like IBM’s Transaction Processing Facility (TPF) for handling huge transactions with a fast response time. These applications have been customized heavily to cater to changing business needs.

Most of the applications running on these platforms are mission-critical for airline, hospitality, travel and banking industry related operations and have to be supported until they are obsolete.

Maintenance and enhancement of these applications consumes time and is costly.
