Week 2 Discussion

Consider, in 500 words or more, how business processes as services can improve efficiency. This discussion is about business process as a service and security. 

Use at least three sources. Use the Research Databases available from the Danforth Library not Google.   Include at least 3 quotes from your sources enclosed in quotation marks and cited in-line by reference to your reference list.  Example: “words you copied” (citation) These quotes should be one full sentence not altered or paraphrased. Cite your sources using APA format. Use the quotes in your paragaphs.  Stand alone quotes will not count toward the 3 required quotes.

Copying without attribution or the use of spinbot or other word substitution software will result in a grade of 0. 

Write in essay format not in bulleted, numbered or other list format. 

Do not use attachments as a submission. 

Reply to two classmates’ posting in a paragraph of at least five sentences by asking questions, reflecting on your own experience, challenging assumptions, pointing out something new you learned, offering suggestions. These peer responses are not ‘attaboys’.   You should make your initial post by Thursday evening so your classmates have an opportunity to respond before Sunday.at midnight when all three posts are due. 

It is important that you use your own words, that you cite your sources, that you comply with the instructions regarding length of your post and that you reply to two classmates in a substantive way (not ‘nice post’ or the like).  Your goal is to help your colleagues write better. Do not use spinbot or other word replacement software. It usually results in nonsense and is not a good way to learn anything. I will not spend a lot of my time trying to decipher nonsense. Proof read your work or have it edited. Find something interesting and/or relevant to your work to write about.

Competency

Summarize cloud applications scalability concepts

Scenario

You are a software developer for a retail company that sells mobile phones via the web. Your company has deployed the entire website onto the public cloud. The mobile manufacturing company launches a new mobile every year. Your company’s website gets ten times the traffic during the new mobile launch. Customers often complain about the timeout and slow website performance. Some of them are even moving to other competitor’s websites, directly impacting your annual profit.

The public cloud provides various options to handle website scalability. Your manager has asked you to investigate various alternatives and walk through the best possible cost-effective solution. The goal is to handle the scale-up of the application during the pick load and scale down during the less load.

The public cloud company also provides a cost calculator to estimate the approximate cost to host the solution.

Instructions

In a Microsoft Word document of 5-6 pages, provide a step by step walk through to your manager and discuss the following points.

• The public cloud vendor you have selected.
• A description of the public cloud architecture for your web application.
• A description of the components that are required for your public cloud and their functionality.
• An explanation of how scale up and scale down will work.
• How security will be enhanced.
• A description of the benefits of deploying to multiple cloud regions.
• An overview of serverless architecture and the benefits provided.
• The approximate cost to host your design on the cloud.

Be sure use a professional tone and check grammar and spelling.

References
