Design and Evolution of Ctrip Flight Search System: High‑Throughput Caching, Real‑Time Computing, Load Balancing and AI

Ctrip’s flight search service processes two billion daily queries by employing a multi‑level Redis cache, machine‑learning‑driven TTLs, distributed pooling and overload protection, AI‑based anti‑scraping, and robust load‑balancing across three data centers, delivering sub‑second latency, up to three‑fold throughput gains and significant cost reductions.
