Headquartered in New Delhi, ETS is committed to leadership in the travel industry.

Afterrigorous evaluation, ETS found that Red Hat Enterprise Linux was the ideal fit for its needs and not only met the firm’s criteria, but also allowed the organization to take advantage of rapid innovation from the open source community and overall partner ecosystem and also to avoid proprietary lock-in.
