Summary: Aircraft manufacturer Boeing and its AerData and Jeppesen subsidiaries will move digital services to Microsoft Azure, and will also use Cortana Intelligence and Azure’s IoT suite in their work on predictive aircraft maintenance, fuel optimisation, airline systems and the overall passenger experience. Boeing has used cloud platforms from AWS and CenturyLink, among others, but decided to centralise around a single technology and the analytics piece was a key driver. The move to Azure will help Boeing analyse more data to drive more effective and more accurate models.
