Travelport supports transaction services for approximately 160 countries, for over 60,000 travel agencies including online travel services, Cisco said.
Travelport network infrastructure and security director Gregory Sheperd said they are now able to free their teams from the daily management grind to work on the challenges that they know are coming their way.
"We will continue to see benefits in network, server, and opex savings year after year, which further enhances IT’s efficiency and responsiveness," Sheperd said.
