CTO Testimonials
"Their Spring Boot mastery let us refactor legacy flight-status endpoints fast. The augmented engineer integrated with our CI in 24 hrs and delivered measurable gains by sprint two, freeing my team to attack new microservices."
Victoria Barnes
CTO
SkyRoute Logistics
"Smartbrain’s Java/Kotlin duo adapted our airline schedule API to NDC two weeks ahead of plan. Onboarding took one stand-up. Productivity spike let marketing launch earlier, adding six carriers to our platform."
Miguel Patterson
VP Engineering
TravelWave Media
"Using Jakarta EE and Hibernate, their dev migrated 4MM PNRs with zero downtime. Smartbrain handled compliance paperwork so we could focus on roadmap, not contracts."
Linda Chen
Product Director
JetRetail Corp.
"The outsourced Java architect introduced reactive Vert.x, trimming GC pauses by 37%. Our ops team finally sleeps. Integration felt in-house."
Robert Wilson
Head of DevOps
Axion Flights
"Smartbrain supplied a senior SDET fluent in JUnit and REST-assured. Regression cycles dropped from 3 days to 5 hours. Contract flexibility let us extend only while backlog was heavy."
Erika Gomez
QA Manager
Navigator Airtech
"Direct hires cost us 35% more. With Smartbrain’s Maven-savvy team, we shipped ancillary-services API months sooner and under budget. Great ROI."

Where Our Java Talent Delivers
Online Travel Agencies
OTAs rely on ultra-fast fare searches.
Augmented Java engineers optimise cache layers, build resilient booking microservices and integrate Amadeus, Sabre and NDC endpoints. They solve seat-map rendering, pricing rules and high-QPS availability, keeping response times sub-200 ms even at peak sale events.
Airlines & Carriers
Flag carriers modernise monoliths.
Developers refactor legacy TPF or COBOL flight control modules into Spring Boot APIs, implement PNR management, loyalty calculations and secure payment flows while ensuring DO-178C level reliability, all under flexible augmentation contracts.
Metasearch Engines
Kayak-style aggregators crave speed.
Java specialists craft asynchronous data pipelines, apply Kafka streaming and fuzzy-logic deduplication, delivering real-time fare aggregation at millisecond scale for millions of user queries daily.
Airport Operations
Ground systems demand accuracy.
Augmented teams build RESTful gate-assignment APIs, baggage tracking services and IoT integrations, reducing turnaround delays and enhancing passenger flow analytics.
Corporate Travel
Enterprise portals must enforce policy.
Our Java experts embed rules engines, SSO and expense reconciliation into airline booking flows, meeting SOC 2 compliance and lowering processing costs per trip.
Cargo & Logistics
Freight tracking hinges on data fidelity.
Developers implement secure manifest APIs, optimize route algorithms and integrate EDI with airline partners, driving on-time delivery KPIs.
Insurance & Insurtech
Flight delay cover needs live data.
Java augmentation enables real-time claims automation using airline status APIs, cutting claim resolution from days to minutes.
FinTech Loyalty
Cards swap miles for spend.
Engineers integrate airline loyalty APIs, build reward calculators and secure redemption endpoints that scale to millions of cardholders.
Hospitality Bundling
Hotels upsell flights.
Java teams craft unified booking stacks, combining room inventory with airline seats, increasing attach rates and revenue per guest through seamless APIs.
API Airline Case Studies
Real-Time Fare Search Revamp
Client: VC-backed OTA.
Challenge: Their legacy monolith could not return results fast enough; peak queries caused API airline timeouts and cart abandonment.
Solution: Smartbrain deployed two senior Java engineers experienced with Hazelcast, Vert.x and NDC. Within four sprints they split fare search into microservices, added async caching and implemented circuit-breaker patterns.
Result: 47% latency reduction, 0.2 s average response, and a 19% uplift in conversions.
Carrier Loyalty Migration
Client: Regional Airline.
Challenge: Needed to expose new api airline loyalty endpoints before alliance deadline.
Solution: Our augmented team re-platformed COBOL logic to Spring Boot, set up OAuth 2.0 security and CI/CD in GitLab, all while collaborating with in-house SMEs.
Result: 6-month roadmap cut to 11 weeks; program launched on time, adding $12 M in ancillary revenue first quarter.
PNR Analytics Platform
Client: Fortune-500 travel insurer.
Challenge: Required high-volume ingestion of api airline PNRs to power real-time risk scoring.
Solution: Three Smartbrain Java data engineers built Kafka pipelines, used Flink for stream processing and exposed GraphQL for BI teams.
Result: 4× faster insight generation, claims fraud dropped 23%, infrastructure costs trimmed 18% via autoscaling.

Outstaffed Java Services
API Integration
Augmented Java teams connect Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport and NDC endpoints, handling token refresh, retry logic and schema evolution. Businesses gain quicker market access without maintaining low-level protocol expertise, ensuring compliant, future-proof integrations.
Microservice Refactor
We decompose airline booking monoliths into Spring Cloud microservices, adding Docker/K8s orchestration. The result is higher availability, faster deployments and easier A/B testing of ancillary-revenue ideas.
Real-Time Analytics
Our Java streaming specialists build Kafka/Flink pipelines for fare trends, seat-map heat-maps and delay predictions, driving data-backed decisions with millisecond latency.
QA & Test Automation
Senior SDETs create REST-assured suites and Gatling load tests that simulate millions of concurrent fare searches, slashing regression cycles and protecting SLAs.
DevOps & SRE
Engineers establish CI/CD, Canary releases and Prometheus-Grafana dashboards tailored to API airline traffic, enabling 99.98% uptime without ballooning ops headcount.
Legacy Modernisation
We translate COBOL/Tandem airline modules into modern Java, adding REST/GraphQL façades so you can innovatively monetise decades-old data while cutting maintenance spend.
