Case Study: Lufthansa Technik achieves secure, scalable, cost-efficient analytics with Looker

Keeping airlines flying optimally with AI-powered TechOps platform AVIATAR

Lufthansa Technik, the global aviation services company behind the AVIATAR platform, needed a secure, scalable, cost-efficient, real-time, event-driven analytics architecture to improve technical operations and aircraft availability. The company’s older self-managed virtual machine setup was costly to maintain and struggled with stability, reliability, and scalability, especially as it processed massive volumes of aircraft sensor, maintenance, and flight data.

Looker helped Lufthansa Technik modernize its analytics approach by supporting the migration to a more efficient cloud-based pipeline for AVIATAR. The solution was completed by the end of January 2021 with zero downtime or customer disruption, enabling better insights, more effective operations, and improved planning for maintenance and aircraft availability.
