The Hotels Network

The Hotels Network (THN from now on) is a data platform for the hotel industry. Our monitoring and media delivery agent is currently embedded in over 10,000 Hotels and Online Booking engines, worldwide.

The Tech Stack

Our tech stack consists of: Vanilla Javascript / Typescript, Go, PHP and Vue.js for our UI applications and dashboards. Our multi-cloud infrastructure runs on Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud. We store data in MySQL, Redis, Clickhouse and other other storage systems. We love Kafka, event based and data-streaming architecture models and building great products as fast as possible following the best practices.

Our monitoring Agent is built with Vanilla Javascript (transitioning soon to Typescript). It is the heart of everything we do. Performance is key to us just as it is for our customers. We build our monitoring agent to resiliently observe multiple services and handle large volumes of data. It deals with a lot of other services, and handles a lot of data.

Our backend consists of a series of mini/micro services built with PHP or Go embracing a Domain Driven Architecture. Testing is in our DNA and we conduct comprehensive unit and integration testing across the board. We embrace process automation wherever possible and ensure the quality and performance of our platform with SonarCloud, Sentry and Datadog.

Our web applications allow our customers and internal teams to operate our tools, access the data we collect and make business decisions. Our web applications are built with Vue.js, and tested with Cypress and Jest. We work closely with our Design/UX team to make sure our web applications are as easy to use as possible.

Our solid data infrastructure is driven by our Data Engineering Team and relies on a modern, state-of-the-art platform supported by our DevOps and Infra teams. What makes THN stand out from any other player in this industry is our Data Science team, that designs and implements advanced ML/AI algorithms fueled by the massive data ingested by our Agent to help our clients predict their users behavior and improve their booking conversion. This position will play a pivotal role in ensuring our Data Science team gets the most valuable insights on our client’s users and target markets.
