Abstract: Skyscanner, as a fast growing travel company, has plenty of exciting technical challenges. Providing accurate, comprehensive and fast search results is already a complex problem. In addition, handling large and growing numbers of users also requires to design for scale and resiliency. We’ll be looking at some of our approaches to these problems, notably how and why we are transitioning to cloud environments. Then we’ll look at some concrete problems we work on in the Barcelona engineering office.
