One of the biggest airlines in mainland China, China Eastern Airlines adopted a Predictive Enterprise computing strategy to help it keep improving service efficiency by optimizing its IT infrastructure to meet ever-growing service loads. Another key issue was maintaining round-the-clock availability of critical systems like air traffic control in order to meet air safety standards. Plus, the airline wanted to develop a long-term Predictive Enterprise IT strategy to keep responding to its evolving business environment.

China Eastern Airlines worked with Intel to adopt the latest computing technologies. Intel® multi-core architecture gives the airline a powerful, robust computing solution that works perfectly alongside its IT strategy. Systems running on Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® processors and Intel® Core™2 Duo processors form the backbone of the airline's enhanced IT Infrastructure and help it work toward its goal of becoming a Predictive Enterprise.

"By adopting Intel technology, we had banked on the technology leadership and brand strength of Intel," explains says Zhang Yakun, director assistant for China Eastern Airlines. "And we were not disappointed. Quad-Core Intel Xeon and Intel Core 2 processor technologies have made a marked difference to our overall system performance."
