Case Study: Skyscanner achieves faster, lower-overhead software delivery with GitHub Enterprise

Skyscanner - Customer Case Study

Skyscanner, the global travel search company, needed a source control and deployment platform that could scale with its growing engineering organization without creating heavy operational overhead. Before moving to GitHub Enterprise in 2018, its previous solution was difficult to upgrade and maintain, and the team was spending too much time supporting the tool instead of building software.

GitHub Enterprise helped Skyscanner consolidate its codebase into a low-maintenance, fast, and responsive platform used by more than 800 licenses across engineering and beyond. With GitHub, Skyscanner improved deployment workflows, reduced operational overhead, and enabled 100 to 200 deployments per day, while also supporting innersource, code reviews, and integrations like GitHub Apps, Snyk, and the Checks API. Skyscanner reported significant savings and more time for engineers to focus on business logic.
