Learning Objectives and Outcomes

• Explore and assess different remote access solutions.

Assignment Requirements

Discuss with your peers which of the two remote access solutions, virtual private networks (VPNs) or hypertext transport protocol secure (HTTPS), you will rate as the best. You need to make a choice between the two remote access solutions based on the following features:

• Identification, authentication, and authorization
• Cost, scalability, reliability, and interoperability

Respond to your peers with your point of view on their answers. Make sure your opinion is substantiated with valid reasons and references to the concepts covered so far in the course. In addition, initiate a discussion with students who comment on your answer. Total length should be 800 words..

Required Resources

None

IT117: Website Development

After completing the assigned readings, apply what you have learned as you discuss the following scenario identifying the steps of website design process.

Topic 1:

Mr. Tomas, the owner of a restaurant, has requested that your Web design company build a website for his restaurant. You were chosen as the web designer for this project. The restaurant is family owned and features the family’s specialty dishes. You agree to meet with Mr. Tomas this weekend to discuss the required website for the restaurant.

• What ten questions will you ask him during the meeting? (Be specific)
• Outline the steps you plan to take to complete the website.
• Identify the key deliverables you will need to provide to Mr. Tomas during the Web design process.

IT261: Desktop Administration

Topic 2: Hardware Recommendations

Review the hardware requirements (minimum and recommended) for Windows 10. Examine the processor and memory requirements carefully. As a desktop administrator, you may be asked to recommend desktop and laptop systems for new employees. Do some research and share your hardware recommendations with classmates, including a brief summary of the features and approximate cost. Be certain to include citations, and add your references at the end of your post.

1.I think one of the ways to effectively prove to a nay sayer on ecology is by showing them the article from the NY times that we summarized in this assessment. Reading that article was an eye opener for me and I am a conservationist. Another way to show an impact is by taking a person out of the city and brining them to a true forest. The clean air, and fresh smell makes your body feel amazing. Then just stand there quietly and let them listen to the lack of noise pollution and hear the birds and nature at it’s best. Even the most bug hating, tree cutting, diesel smoking city person would not be able to argue against that. answer in couple sentences and then

agree below a post in 2-3 sentences.

2.PowerPoint is an excellent evolution of the “overhead”! I believe PPT is vastly superior to the old methods in that graphics and the transitional animations grab and hold the attention of the viewers. it also seems more professional. its also easier to change from one element to the other, even going backwards if needs be. I also like the fact that you can print and share the slides in the order in which the presenter intends them beyond the actual presentation for the viewer to look back at later.

please number the answers as it is in questions.

Part II-Course Project

This part of the assignment is a detailed project designed to help you learn the modeling of business requirements and understand the physical implementation of logical business models through the use of E-R models.

Course Project Part 1—Database Planning

For this week, imagine that you have been hired by a company to build a database for it and complete the following tasks:

• Describe your idea of the database.
  • This can be a business problem or a hobby you are interested in—for example, an airline reservation system.
• Outline the database you would like to create.
• Outline the SDLC. Include the following subcategories:
  • Strategy and analysis for a business or an idea you plan to develop
  • Analysis of the current system:
    • What does the company have?
    • What business projections does it have?
  • Integration with other systems—plan how the current system can be integrated with other systems
  • Documentation and communication—describe how this vital part will be accomplished
  • Design for changes—prepare a plan for the future
  • Reusable resources—do not redo work; identify what the company has in place that you can use

(This is the best part of the project—you create everything!)

Note: Whatever you create is fiction and the above-mentioned six items will need to be addressed in the final document.

Assignment Deliverable

After you complete the lab and course project, collate the information from both in a 3- to 4-page report in a Microsoft Word document.

Need a 6 page paper in APA format.

Statement of the problem: While infrastructure is growing, it is getting challenging to maintain that huge infrastructure in production environments. Systems maintenance is getting more critical as applications and customers demand high availability and zero downtime. In any industry, maintaining production systems is increasingly critical as downtime could be costly and damage the reputation of the company. Manufacturing industries take critical care maintaining the machinery that could lead to catastrophic damage in production. As equipment and infrastructure is emerging, they are producing huge amounts of data sets which can be used as a datasource to Big Data and analyze the data and prevent outages in production environment.

Conclusion: The aim of this paper is to provide the use and application of Big Data analytics tools and techniques in production environment to reduce the systems outage, detect and prevent damage and help during maintenance.
