To speed up e-ticketing operations, the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has imported five new servers from Singapore.

The initiative to import five new servers from Singapore comes close on the heels of IRCTC introducing two new high-speed servers earlier this month that have doubled peak-time efficiency for booking Tatkal tickets in the morning hours.

Manocha, IRCTC Chairman & Managing Director, said, “The five new HP Itanium servers, to be installed shortly in the middle layer of the Passenger Reservation System (PRS), would considerably speed up the booking of e-tickets and streamline the Next-Generation E-Ticketing System (NGET).”

“There are already five servers in the PRS at its middle layer. With the addition of five new servers from Singapore, their number would go up to ten,” he informed.
