[edit] Overview
[edit] Projects[edit] Active
OpenTravel has been conducting a study on a new initiative called “OpenTravel 2.0” led by the OpenTravel Architecture Workgroup. This project will create a prototype of the proposed new OpenTravel 2.0 type library and business objects. Please note this is a prototype and not an actual schema development project. The outcome of this study will be evaluated by OpenTravel leadership for its impact on current and future implementations. The Namespace Usage Study has identified the various common practices in the industry regarding namespaces and the trends that may be emerging or have emerged since the introduction of namespaces in the OpenTravel messages. The study reviews the history of the namespace policy in the OpenTravel Specification and discusses alternative options for suppliers, OTA’s and integrators within the travel industry. The Payment Card Industry (PCI) has mandated that owners of systems that process, store or exchange payment card information tighten security and handling of this type of information to prevent the theft and/or misuse of customer payment card information and other personally identifying information. OpenTravel schema messages and supporting files may contain both types of information and the purpose of this study is to determine the extent of usage of PCI data and PII within the OpenTravel Specification and make recommendations regarding protection, remediation, and best practices for collecting, storing and exchanging the information. It is anticipated that the result of this study will initiate an OpenTravel schema modification project. There are limitless ways implementers can (and have) extended and reused OpenTravel schemas. OpenTravel Data Dictionaries facilitate greater and easier adoption by harmonizing the specifications by resolving conflicting definitions. OpenTravel Data Dictionaries also make it easier for OpenTravel workgroups to produce new messages (as it is easier to identify and reuse existing components in new ways) and support the existing messages (because they will be much simpler and changes will be applied consistently.) |
