Transforming AirFrance-KLM’s Payment Application to Cloud Native in Six Weeks
summary
AirFrance‑KLM breaks a 12‑year‑old payment system (37,000 transactions/day) from three into five components, bootifying it with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud and deploying most pieces to Tanzu Application Service after a six‑week push that actually takes nine. Shortcuts get replaced by proper secret management and pipelines; OpenJDK 11 fixes a crash under load. Result: 10% faster responses, self‑service scaling, 72‑hour patch turnaround, and ongoing plans for blue‑green and commit‑driven deploys.
