CHALLENGE
A complex and critical data environment
For Air Europa, a vital component in its success is its data strategy. From operations and maintenance to administration and finance, enabling access to key operational information is the main responsibility of a dedicated team of data engineers and developers.
Air Europa previously used standard ETL processes to distribute from its multiple systems. However, as the business grew, the limitations of this approach became apparent. Data replication was a time-consuming operation that required extensive resources and lacked robustness and reliability.
APPROACH
A pivotal proof-of-concept
Air Europa has been working successfully with Qlik for analytics since 2017 and has now extended the portfolio with Qlik’s integration solutions.
Through a comprehensive proof-of-concept exercise, Air Europe worked with Qlik Consulting to familiarize its team with Qlik Data Integration and ensure it met Air Europa’s specific requirements.
The process proved beyond doubt that Qlik was the right solution, and gave Air Europa the experience and confidence it needed to work with the solution independently.
RESULTS
Providing essential data – and value
Air Europa now runs 105 tasks a day involving over 1,500 separate tables replicating 160 million rows of data – totaling nearly five billion rows a month. And with Qlik handling the process independently, the benefits are impressive, saving around 700 hours a year in ETL processes alone.
It also means that users across Air Europa have access to reliable data and can be confident in its accuracy and timeliness. It’s also an approach that now allows users to accelerate important decision-making processes and build Air Europa’s wider business agility.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
A comprehensive data-driven culture
Air Europa’s growing Qlik portfolio isn’t just about maintaining a single vendor: it’s because the solutions that Qlik provides – Qlik for data integration and Qlik for analytics – deliver the reliable, robust, and high-performing data environment the airline needed.
As a result, the airline is saving valuable time and resources while increasing its business agility. Qlik solutions are also establishing an increasingly powerful data-driven culture that’s giving Air Europa the edge it needs to fly high in a crowded and competitive market.
With Qlik, I have no doubts that our data is perfectly synchronized, that what’s in Oracle is exactly what’s in our analytics space. That’s incredibly important.
