The BookIt system addresses the business needs of a large number of
tourism industry participants from suppliers and wholesalers right
through to customers as end-users.
As an application service provider, BookIt works alongside tourism
businesses by providing and managing powerful technology that sits
transparently "behind the scenes".
Microsoft Case Study
Microsoft recently published a case study on the BookIt system:
The core system operates on a Windows 2003 Server & IIS 6.0 environment
located in a dedicated hosting facility. The BookIt software was built
around a multi-tiered architecture model from the ground up using
.NET technology and the C# language.
Our suite of .NET applications including ASP.Net web based applications,
.NET Smart client/Windows applications and .NET Windows Services all
“talk” to the core application server through a .NET remoting
service layer. The BookIt database is a SQL Server 2005 database backed
up daily.
Behind the scenes systems are continually being improved and enhanced,
with new features, improved security, more efficient processes being
developed and applied. As a central technology provider these benefits
are rolled out across the whole BookIt network without any further
investment required from users of the BookIt technology.
The BookIt technology is the a differentiator between BookIt Ltd and
other providers of technology or reservations services to the tourism
industry. No other provider can offer the unique combination of power
and flexibility that the truly end-to-end, truly seamless and truly
scalable BookIt system can.
BookIt is a registered Microsoft partner.
