However, the database management system cannot withstand the quickly and greatly increased work load, the break-down frequency increases, which make the decision-making efficiency and customer experience drop. The company tries to turn around this bad trend and poses two solutions: one is to update the present DBMS including hardware, software and human resource; the other one is to make use of SQL Azure from Microsoft to set up cloud environment and transfer the DBMS there. After cost analysis, we find that to reach the same efficiency standard, the cost of...

INTRODUCTION In recent years, with the advances in technology, for example cell phones, tables and laptops, business are turning to cloud solutions to increase productivity. While the concept of having crucial data at your fingertips sounds fascinating and attracting. Business need to be quarry and resource the software in depth before they commit to a cloud solution. During this paper will explore the pros and cons about Cloud solution software’s. Are they the next big thing in business or a disaster waiting to happen? HISTORY Many people agree that cloud computing can be traced all the way back to the sixties when J.C.R. Licklider. His vision was for everyone on the globe to be interconnected and accessing programs and data at any site, from anywhere, explained Margaret Lewis, product marketing director at AMD. "It is a vision that sounds a lot like what we are calling cloud computing." But we had to wait until the late nimieties since the internet only started to offer the necessary bandwidth cloud computing requires. The first major milestone for cloud computing can be attributed to Salesforce.com in 1999. Salesforce.com vision was to create a customer relationship management (CRM), which would help companies create communication with its customers. Some other milestones was Amazon Web Services in 2002, Amazon launched its Elastic Compute cloud (EC2) in 2006. By 2009 companies like Microsoft and...

...years now and just recently started developing iOS apps and websites about 1-2 years ago and am still new and learning each and every day, but I haven’t really ever enjoyed a class this much. I have been reading articles each week for these research papers that are required weekly and due to the requirement of breaking them down and performing a “dive deep” on them, I have really been able to relate what we are learning in school to actual life and real life situations. The article that I choose for this week is from Security Info Watch and it discusses the future of data breaches this year and things that we could encounter over the time frame of this year and next decade as technology continues to grow at the rate it is growing. It compare the big breach with Target and aligns it to other situations that are possibilities with the way we use our technology. One of the big theories that the article through out was that we are going to run into issues with all of this cloud computing and big data and that society is very vulnerable to a big data cloud breach. Apple has started the whole ball rolling with cloud computing storing all of your data on a cloud platform easily accessible by all of your devices. The only problem is that it too is easily accessible to other things such as malicious people. Another possible breach that the article discusses is that healthcare is slowly being stored via a cloud platform as well and there are potential ways that a breach of that information...

Business applications are moving to the cloud. It’s not just a fad—the shift from traditional software models to the Internet has steadily gained momentum over the last 10 years. Looking ahead, the next decade of cloud technology promises new ways to collaborate everywhere, through mobile devices. How does cloud technology work : Cloud technology works over the network. Cloud technology consists of Infrastructure as a service (IaaS), Platform as a service (PaaS) Hardware as a Service (HaaS) and Software as a service (SaaS). It also possesses the service of renting a server or servers and of running a geophysical modelling application that can be made available anywhere. Cloud technology also enables the user to rent a virtual server, loaded with software and turn it on and off according to the sweet will of the user and it can also be cloned to meet an immediate workload demand.

List the top five IT certifications along with a brief description that appears in at least three different sources. Which of these IT certifications will be in demand in the future and why? “* Microsoft unveiled the latest crop of new certifications in 2012, driving a large spike in popularity. Earning a 2012 MCSA certification in 2013 will give you a foundation in basic information technology know-how and prepare you for higher Microsoft certifications. * MCSE: Private Cloud. If you’ve stepped in an IT department over the last year, you know “cloud” is the buzzword on the tip of everyone’s tongue. This Microsoft expert certification has been reinvented for the cloud - after only 8 months, the Private Cloud certification is already as popular as the rival CompTIA and CCP cloud certifications. The popularity of cloud computing has increased demand for IT professionals who can build private cloud computing solutions using common technology platforms. Microsoft is also discontinuing the popular MCITP program in 2014 and directing individuals to become MCSE’s. This makes 2013 the perfect year to obtain the MCSE certification and get jump start on those who convert in 2014. * Project management is a classic, foundational skill that evolves with new technologies and will never become outdated. A strong understanding of project management enables IT professionals to plan, budget...

...Technology Strategies Valerie McQueen-Vance BSA/310 March 2, 2015 Jennifer Streker Technology Strategies Optimizing communication between employees and constant access to information is becoming more significant to how businesses operate each day. How can a business expand the capabilities of these two necessities for their employees? Throughout the last week I have researched access to information and communication options that are currently on the market today. There are a many that are in the developmental stages. The ability to link employees through the use of technology can improve the company’s overall operation. I found two interesting initiatives that are proposed and felt that they would be relevant in our Week 5 team project: Bubble Films. The first prospect is a joint effort between AT&T and Microsoft. “The new solution, AT&T Mobile Office Suite, helps to improve employee productivity while in the office or on-the-go.” (AT&T, Unk) The new merger will provide user access to a cloud-based solution at a reasonable cost. The second prospect is a new personal assistant application that will help manage an employee’s calendars, emails, and contacts related to their job. “The idea is to offer individuals whose business requires them to maintain relationships an easy way to receive reminders to reach out to those most important to them.” (Perez, 2015) Although I chose two new technologies to highlight, there are many options available to consider...

...Week 1: Information Systems in the Digital Firm - Lecture | | | Information Systems in the Digital Firm Evolution | Current State | Trends | Tutorial The Evolution, Current State, and Trends of Information Systems In addition to the material currently described, an introduction to cloud computing and user involvement in IT projects also will be included in this lecture. This is required as foundational knowledge for the chapters to come. We will explore it at a business level and a minimal technical level. | | Evolution | | The business landscape has changed over the past seventy years in every significant way. Without information systems, these changes would not have occurred. To gain a perspective on the evolution of information systems, we can review the significant computer inventions from the first computer through to cloud computing. As computer technology progressed, new skills had to be learned, and new methods of management evolved to replace old hierarchical styles with new team based methods. Increased productivity resulting in new information technology caused the downsizing of employees that began in the late 1980s and has continued. Information systems consultants identified productivity gains, so large that they cut the numbers in half and still weren't believed. Many of the products and services we use every day had not been invented just five or ten years ago. The ability to communicate electronically with anyone anywhere in the world...

...CLOUD COMPUTING DISRUPTIVE INNOVATION Managing Technology and Innovations Date: 30 March, 2016 Shireesha Sudhakar Manchal 152093 MIB 39 A 1 Disruptive Innovation – Cloud Computing “A disruptive innovation is an innovation which creates a new market as well as a new value network that will eventually disrupt an existing market and its value network, displacing established market leaders and alliances”. The term was coined and analyzed by Mr. Clayton M. Christensen beginning in 1995. It is the term that is used to describe a new technology that has a vivid effect towards the competitive existing incumbent firms. This kind of innovation is a hybrid of both technological and market innovations which make old technologies obsolete. It is a technology based on new- value structure which provide value experience for new low-end customers in a highly competitive market which later spreads to the incumbent market as well. By utilizing this kind of innovation, the already existing markets will be forced to modify their strategies to suit the new innovation and hence will result in those companies having to undergo a lot more changes to both try and crush the old technology with a more advanced one as well as to try and adapt this technology in their business successfully. Let us take the example of Cloud Computing which uses a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, and which does not...

...Chapter 5 IT Infrastructure and Emerging Technologies 203 Salesforce.Com: Cloud Ser vices Go Mainstream CASE STUDY S alesforce.com, one of the most disruptive technology companies of the past few years, has single-handedly shaken up the software industry with its innovative business model and resounding success. Salesforce provides customer relationship management (CRM) and other application software solutions in the form of software as a service leased over the Internet, as opposed to software bought and installed on machines locally. The company was founded in 1999 by former Oracle executive Marc Benioff, and has since grown to over 3,900 employees, 82,400 corporate customers, and 2.1 million subscribers. It earned $1.3 billion in revenue in 2009, making it one of the top 50 software companies in the world. Salesforce attributes its success to the many benefits of its on-demand model of software distribution. The on-demand model eliminates the need for large up-front hardware and software investments in systems and lengthy implementations on corporate computers. Subscriptions start as low as $9 per user per month for the pared-down Group version for small sales and marketing teams, with monthly subscriptions for more advanced versions for large enterprises starting around $65 per user. For example, the Minneapolis-based Haagen-Dazs Shoppe owned by Nestle USA calculated it would have had to spend $65,000 for a custom-designed database to help management stay in contact...
