Web Services Based Hotel Reservation application development & Integration

Web services have revolutionized the travel and tourism industry. Big and small players are quickly joining the web services revolution to avail the benefits of spiraling revenues and minimized overheads.

The client in question is a travel and tourism portal that allows travel agents to book hotel rooms online. These agents have exclusive logins into the web application that allows them to book facilities on behalf of their customers. The web services based application now allows these agents to access real time data for most optimized booking of rooms.

The agents are provided with an interface through which they can search for hotels. On searching the information, the agent selects the room matching the selection criteria. The agent now initiates the booking process.

Each agent is assigned a specific agent code and all requests from the agents are validated by the agent code. Once the code is verified a session is set up during which the agent passes the desired customer parameters to the parent application to check for room availability. The parent application in turn retrieves data in real time and returns the result set. Further, if the any results match what the customer wants, then the booking is made.

The booking generates a booking reference code that is unique. This is used by the agent and the customer for all further communication regarding the booking.
