Client Overview
Axisrooms is a central reservation system for hotel and apartment chains across India. Operators configure room types, pricing, reservation policies, meal plans, taxes and promotions in one place, and the system connects to external booking platforms like Booking.com for instant bookings and live synchronisation.
Client Needs
Frontend Development
Scalable Backend Implementation
Room Distribution Algorithm
User-Friendly Interface
Axisrooms needed a system to run hotel and apartment management across India. That meant a booking engine and a room-distribution algorithm to handle reservations, one place to manage room types, pricing and policies, and direct integration with external booking providers for instant reservations. The interface had to make complex reservation management clear, and the backend had to scale to thousands of hotels while distributing guests well across available rooms. It also had to pull booking information from customer systems.
Services Provided
Backend design and development. A microservices backend that scales, stays maintainable, and handles a high volume of transactions.
Frontend application design and development. A responsive interface built for the teams managing hotel and apartment chains, focused on making complex reservation work clear.
Room-distribution algorithm. A heuristic that spreads guests across available rooms to raise occupancy without hurting the guest experience.
Integration with external systems. We connected Axisrooms to external booking platforms and customer systems, so booking information stays in sync across all of them.
Scope of Work
Our job was to build the entire backend and frontend from the ground up, following the detailed documentation the client provided. Six developers worked on it across almost three years, in continuous contact with the client's analysts and testers to keep the quality high. Our scope of work:
- A thorough analysis of the hospitality industry to understand the specific needs and challenges of hotel and apartment chains.
- Designing and building both the frontend and backend of the reservation system, sized to handle the complexity of hotel management.
- A frontend that makes managing hotel parameters, reservations and promotions clear and efficient.
- A backend that handles a large volume of hotel data and reservations, with smooth operation even with thousands of hotels in the system.
- A heuristic for reservation handling that distributes guests across available rooms to raise occupancy and revenue.
- Integration with external booking platforms and customer systems for smooth data exchange and booking retrieval.
Technologies Used
Development Process
We worked in an agile cycle, starting from a detailed requirements analysis against the client's documentation. The backend ran on Java and Spring, the frontend on Angular, with continuous integration for regular testing and Docker for consistent deployments.
