Case Study: Airbus achieves 99.9% SLA-ready scalable real-time streaming with Ververica

How Ververica Transformed Real-time Intelligence at Airbus

Airbus, a leading aircraft manufacturer, needed to deploy Apache Flink jobs at scale without adding complexity to its existing custom Java streaming stack or increasing costs and resource overhead. Ververica was engaged to provide its Ververica Platform (software and service offering) to manage Flink deployments and reduce the manual effort required to handle interruptions.

Ververica implemented its platform using Apache Flink and a Kubernetes operator to deliver a 99.9% SLA‑ready, scalable real‑time streaming solution, enabling Airbus to produce roughly twice the updates per second of X (formerly Twitter). The rollout sped up deployments and time‑to‑production, cut operational overhead and maintenance windows, improved observability and root‑cause resolution, and provided 24/7 support—resulting in greater pipeline stability and improved SLAs.
