Turkey’s National Airline Transforms Global Network with Juniper Networks

Juniper Networks today announced that Turkish Airlines, Turkey’s national airline with over 200 global locations, has upgraded its global network and standardised on Juniper Networks’ integrated portfolio of software, switching, security and routing products.

Turkish Airlines’ new network has simplified and centralised the airline’s infrastructure, delivering an estimated cost savings of approximately £6 million in five years in employee resources, £3.8 million in telecommunication costs and £1.9 million in support services.

Turkish Airlines switched from a legacy fixed-line distributed network to Juniper’s high-performance network infrastructure that provides simplified, centralised and secure remote management of its 300 sales offices around the world and support for its voice and data applications including reservations and ticket sales. The airline also consolidated all of its distributed servers into a centralised single server farm located at its headquarters in Istanbul, enabling the airline to standardise its systems, increase its bandwidth and simplify the management of its remote services.
