w-100

Client Overview

British Airways is a leading UK-based airline that has been serving customers with the best flying experience for more than 100 years. This airline connects the UK with the world by offering both domestic and international flights. With its affiliates, this airline operates around 200 destinations in over 75 countries throughout Europe, North America, South America, Asia, Africa, and Australia. These leading airlines consistently prioritize sustainability at the heart of their operations to achieve zero carbon emissions in the coming years. 

Business Objective

British Airways was seeking a scalable and flexible API management solution to support its expanding digital infrastructure. To ensure effortless API management with complete infrastructure control, they aimed to implement Apigee Hybrid on AWS Elastic Kubernetes Services (EKS). 

Technical Considerations

Implementing Apigee Hybrid on AWS EKS required careful architectural planning to balance scalability, security, and operational ownership. The environment demanded Kubernetes-native deployment, full infrastructure automation using Terraform, and strict alignment with the airline’s internal security policies. Identity federation, image vulnerability scanning, PCI scope reduction, and hardened network configurations were essential to meet compliance standards. Additionally, phased API migration, testing frameworks, and validation controls were implemented to ensure stability across mission-critical airline services.
