Leading Travel and Hospitality Development Teams Use AccuRev

The use of the internet has significantly changed the way people think about the role of travel and hospitality. No longer to customers use travel agencies to book reservations, the internet has become the primary method of booking and payment for these types of services. To most travel and hospitality companies, the reservation system, website and payment processing is directly tied to the top dollar and performance of the company. This means that development teams must spend a significant amount of resources innovating technology that helps make sure these websites are full-featured, fast and error-free. AccuRev provides the range of capabilities to address the needs for development teams building travel and hospitality sites or applications.

Parallel Development

Often teams working in a Travel and Hospitality environment will have many components and teams under the covers that make their website work. This could range from UI developers, applications, reservation systems, rewards points, databases or interfacing with other vendors like Sabre or credit card processing. All of these teams may develop at a different pace or cadence meaning they will need to work in parallel and release when they are ready.

Parallel development in AccuRev is fast and easy. Multiple teams and projects work in a fully-auditable dynamic process. AccuRev captures and controls relationships between code bases in parallel effort using a stream-based architectures. This allows teams to safely work at their own pace before sharing it with others, quickly and easily merging code and inheriting changes from other teams.

Drag and Drop Releases

Many times there are multiple versions or releases to a website that need to be made. During the course of a release cycle it will be important to distinguish finished code versus unverified code for a release. This means that Travel and Hospitality teams have integrate code changes successfully to a release branch to achieve this goal. It can be a manual error-prone process in order to get even get the simplest change out the door.
