In an effort to highlight the new wave of innov
ative travel applications being developed, SITA’s research technology team, SITA Lab, invites airlines and developers to join trials of developer.aero. This is the API (application programming interface) developers’ portal which SITA Lab is now moving into its next phase of development.
The platform is being designed to enable airlines, airports and other industry players to extend existing IT processes by harnessing the application developer community to provide new apps for the industry and world travelers.
Jim Peters, CTO, SITA, said: “API-client architecture is the key enabler that is driving new-gen app development and allowing apps to be developed for virtually any platform. It opens the possibility of solutions being created that the companies might not have the resources to develop or for which they might not have even anticipated a consumer need.
The APIs are only available to trial by airlines directly or developers who are authorized by that airline. They can access the platform and register to use it from today.
