Protecting Ground Operations

Ground operations are a critical component of efficient service delivery, security, and overall customer experience. SIOS HA solutions, including SIOS LifeKeeper and DataKeeper software, safeguard a wide range of vital systems involved in ground operations including, baggage handling, and common-use
bag drop systems, airport management systems, and spares logistics. Our software ensures that these essential services remain operational, even in the face of hardware or software failures, keeping your airport running smoothly.

Enhancing Passenger Experience

A seamless travel experience starts with reliable passenger processing systems. SIOS HA/DR software enables airports and airlines of any size to enhance the passenger experience by eliminating service disruptions and downtime for critical systems. Our solutions protect everything from reservation systems to self-service check-in kiosks, arrival and departure display systems, and common-use passenger processing systems. This ensures that passengers enjoy a smooth journey from check-in to boarding, while airports benefit from streamlined operations and reduced costs.

Access Control and Security

Security is paramount in any airport or aviation infrastructure. SIOS software provides uptime protection for critical security systems, including access control and video surveillance systems that restrict access to sensitive areas to authorized personnel. In the event of a downtime incident, SIOS’ simple, cost efficient clustering software for either Windows or Linux solutions automatically restore application operation in minutes.

Video Surveillance Systems
