Disaster Recovery

 The assignment is to create a Disaster Recovery Plan for an organization- Please be specific on the what type of an organization you are focusing on. I understand that typical DR plans can be very lengthy. However, based on the scope of the assignment, you can focus on one particular area/department of a large organization or you can focus on a smaller organization such as a small business, doctor’s office or a similar setup. Please ensure to be clear and specific on your area of focus and cover all the areas mentioned in the assignment. 

Develop a disaster recovery plan for an organization. There are many different templates available online for you to use as reference and guidance. Your plan should cover the following sections (these sections detail the elements in a DR plan in the sequence defined by industry compliance standards ISO 27031 and ISO 24762): 

  1. Important: This section should summarize key action steps (such as where to assemble employees if forced to evacuate the building) and list key contacts with contact information for ease of authorizing and launching the plan.
  2. Introduction
  3. Roles and Responsibilities
  4. Incident Response
  5. Plan Activation
  6. Document History
  7. Procedures

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • Be approximately Seven to Eight pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. (Remember, APA is double spaced)
  • Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
  • Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least four scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. 
  • Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

Question 2

Decide on an IT-related project that you like. 

Research and find a template for your project proposal.

Use  APA formatting for citations and references.

Discussion 2

For your initial post, consider the following scenario.

After internal security issues nearly ruined the business, an organization is looking to hire a new chief information officer (CIO) to institute a new governance design. In addition, the new CIO will need to decide whether to use an acceleration or containment strategy to address user computing.

For this interactive assignment, you will take on the role of a perspective candidate for the CIO position and propose to the executives of the organization a governance design that you would implement. In a separate document, create a diagram that depicts your governance design and attach it to the initial post. Within the initial post, explain the role of information systems governance in business and why the CIO role has become so important. Explain the strategy you would use as the CIO to support user computing (i.e., acceleration or containment) and provide a rationale for why you selected one over the other. In addition, explain the governance design you created and would implement as the CIO of the organization. Provide at least three implementation examples to support your design selection and user computing rationale

Your initial post should be a minimum of 300 words.

Big Data Research assignment

We studied Apache Pig in lecture # 4. You are supposed to do online research and find out one case study where Apache Pig was used to solve a particular problem. I am expecting 4 page write-up. Please provide as much technical details as possible about solution through Apache Pig. Please draw technical diagrams to explain the solution. 

 

I am expecting maximum one page for business problem and 3 pages of technical solution. I want everyone to do research and provide their own write-up.

 

Please draw your own diagrams and don’t go more than 4 pages in total.

Week 2 Technology Discussion

  Please provide constructive responses to these two discussion posts (3-4 sentences minimum)

1. One  of the advance features I have learned using Microsoft word is the  insert feature. Being able to place all sorts of symbols, pictures,  graphs to a word document helps make it stand out more. For example, if I  were to write a document that talks about graphs and data, I can insert  a chart to properly displays the numbers I want to present over just  regular text. To do so, you must click on the Insert ribbon right next  to Home, under the Illustrations tab, you will see the Chart option.  Another window will open showing you the many different types of charts  and graphs that you can use to present your data. After selecting the  chart you want to use, the image will be inserted into the document  along with another window that reads Chart in Microsoft Windows. It is a  spreadsheet that you can use to enter the data you would like your  chart to display.

2.  An advanced feature that I learned in Microsoft Word was to insert a  picture. This may not be advanced to others but was a feature I had to  play with to insert correctly. To perform this task you would open  Microsoft word and open a blank document. Once the document is opened  use the tab on top that states insert, once you tap insert you have  options to use picture on device or online pictures. I chose online  pictures which provides more options. To use the online search you can  type whatever your looking for in search engine. Once you select the  picture you want to use on your document click picture and below will  provide option to insert. After tapping insert picture will drop onto  document. The picture on document will then need to be positioned by  clicking on picture and dropping on document where desired. Once picture  is positioned use arrow keys to adjust size of picture as desired. I  find this a great feature and think an added illustration always  enhances a document of any kind.
