 For your written assignment this week, complete a case study of the organization you work for (use a hypothetical or “other” organization if more applicable) that will address the following prompts:

 • Describe the organization’s environment, and evaluate its preparedness for virtualization.

• Explain Microsoft (or another product) licensing for virtualized environments.

• Recommend a configuration for shared storage; make sure to discuss the need for high availability and redundancy for virtualization for the organization.

• Explain Windows Azure capabilities for virtual machines and managing a hybrid cloud, including Windows Azure’s Internet as a Service (IaaS) and storage capabilities

Make a recommendation for cloud computer use in the organization, including a justification for your recommendations.

• Be approximately four to six pages in length (1200-1800 words), not including the required cover page and reference page.

Questions for Discussion

1. What is Big Data? Why is it important? Where does Big Data come from?

2. What do you think the future of Big Data will be? Will it lose its popularity to something else? If so, what will it be?

3. What is Big Data analytics? How does it differ from regular analytics?

4. What are the critical success factors for Big Data analytics?

5. What are the big challenges that one should be mindful of when considering implementation of Big Data analytics?

Exercise 3:

At teradatauniversitynetwork.com, go to the Sports Analytics page. Find applications of Big Data in sports. Summarize your findings.

 When submitting work, be sure to include an APA cover page and include at least two APA formatted references (and APA in-text citations) to support the work this week. 

Proper network design provides for compliant security, not only isolating users and their traffic, but also preventing attackers from easily traversing a network.

Using Microsoft Visio or another online network diagramming tool, diagram the network that was analyzed in the Topic 1 “Quantify the System” assignment.

Then, create a diagram for a better approach for compliance, based on one of the following frameworks: PCI, HIPAA, NIST, or any other accepted framework.

Ideally, the network will be an Enterprise class consisting of 1000+ clients for various corporate departments, with 50-100 servers providing typical network services. The network infrastructure will be using Layer 3 switches and layered routing to provide separation of subnets.

Your diagram, at a minimum, should include the following secure network design elements: Firewalls, IDS/IPS, DMZ, Vlans, Border and Gateway routers, private IP addressing, Isolated Server Subnets, Network Access Control, and VPN concentrator.

APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.

Refer to “Demonstrating the Gap Scoring Guide,” prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Hi Class, the link below can help you with week 4 assignment. The link is not an endorsement or affiliated in any way to GCU. However, you are welcome to use whatever application or site that will produce the end results for what is being asked.

Also, I don’t except to see 50-100 servers on your diagram. However, your diagram, at a minimum, should include the following secure network design elements: Firewalls, IDS/IPS, DMZ, Vlans, Border and Gateway routers, private IP addressing, Isolated Server Subnets, Network Access Control, and VPN concentrator.

This is an assignment that many students forget to label or include what is required. That said, I want everyone to do their best and get the best possible grade.

Submission must include the following information in the following format:

DEFINITION: a brief definition of the key term “Negotiation”.

SUMMARY: Summarize the article in your own words- this should be in the 150 word range. Be sure to note the article’s author, note their credentials and why we should put any weight behind his/her opinions, research or findings regarding the key term.

ANALYSIS: Using 300 words, write a brief analysis, in your own words of how the article relates to the selected chapter Key Term. An analysis is not rehashing what was already stated in the article, but the opportunity for you to add value by sharing your experiences, thoughts and opinions. This is the most important part of the assignment.

REFERENCES: 

Discuss in 500 words, why institutions are reluctant to move their IT to the cloud. Consider specific industries like education, medicine, military, etc.

 How to save one Histogram of Multiple dicom images using matlab 

 and then plot the best fit line  
 

In this assignment you are comparing hashes of some Strings using various Has function algorithms.

´  Go to the site http://www.fileformat.info/tool/hash.htm.

´  Write a string in the string textbox and hit the hash button.

´  Scroll down to see the hash though various algorithms.

´  Copy and paste the hash values in a Word file.

´   Make a small change in the string and hit the hash button again.

´  Compare the hash values with those from the previous string.

´  Note how quickly all the hashes were calculated.

´  Note that a small change in input gives a drastically different hash value.

´  Choose a file from your computer and calculate the hash of it on this site (Repeat the steps above on two different files).

´  Write a paragraph or two about this experiment.

This week we will tackle the tough topics of anonymity, net neutrality, censorship, and controlling speech. All these topics can easily start a debate among the most conservative individuals. It is important to understand these concepts can sometimes counteract the progression of technology in society.

Pick a topic below and post your reply by Wednesday at midnight. Your response should be at least 200 words and appropriately cites your resources.

Respond to two of your classmates by Sunday at midnight. Your responses should be at least 100 words and should be substantive. You should offer additional resources, insight, or other helpful feedback. A simple “I like your post” will result in a 0.

You will not be able to see your classmates’ posts until you make your first post.

Note: plagiarism is not tolerated in this course. Everything must be in your own words with sources! Failure to do so will result in failing grade.

Topics:

• What is the Telecommunications Act of 1996?
• How has the idea of offensive speech changed since technology has progressed?
• Do you consider the internet an appropriate tool for children? At what age do you introduce children to the internet?
• What is data leakage? What does the term insider threat mean?
• What are some kinds of Web sites that should prohibit anonymity?

Your paper will be an annotated bibliography, specifically focusing on the topic of using simulations for policy making. The papers you select must address how IT is used to model behavior for policy making.

You paper must be in correct APA format, use correct grammar, and will need to include at five (5) resources, ALL of which must:

1) Be current. Published within the last few years.

2) Be peer-reviewed.

3) Relate directly to using simulations for policy making. The papers you select must address how IT is used to model behavior for policy making.

USE YOUR OWN WORDS!!!! DO NOT PLAGIARIZE!!!! 

Remember that an annotation is not the same as an abstract. Abstracts are descriptive. Your annotations are to be evaluative and critical. Give me enough information for me to decide if I’m interested enough to read the paper, and also how you perceive the paper. Don’t go skimpy on these annotations, but DO NOT write too much here. Quality is far more important that quantity. This exercise is for each of you to demonstrate that you can identify, categorize, and digest multiple research papers. 

Every resource you choose must be peer reviewed. That means the paper must have undergone a formal peer review before being published in a journal or presented at a conference. You must ensure that your resources have undergone rigorous reviews. In most cases, you can find out the review process for a conference or journal by visiting the appropriate web site. Do not simply assume that a resource is peer reviewed – check it out.
