Faster Computing has contacted Go2Linux and requested a brief  proposal presentation for migrating its systems from Windows to Linux.  The company is specifically interested in seeing the following  information:

• Based on your current understanding of Faster Computing’s business, what are some potential benefits of Linux?
   
• The company is aware that many different Linux derivatives exist. Which would Go2Linux recommend, and why?
   
• Are there graphical interfaces available for the Linux workstations  that would provide similar functionality to Windows? Some users are  concerned about working with a command-line interface.
   
• What steps will be required to migrate the systems from Windows to Linux?
   
• What tools are available on Linux for the servers to provide file sharing, web servers, and email servers?
   

The deliverable for this phase of the project is a three- to  five-slide PowerPoint narrated presentation. For each slide, you will  embed your own audio recording as if you were presenting the content to  the Faster Computing team. Faster Computing has not yet committed to the  project, so this should be presented as a proposal. 

The presentation should be visually appealing; inclusion of at least  one image that supports the content and adds value to the proposal is  required. You must cite at least two quality sources.

Select from the following list four (4) topics and discuss. Use only 70-words max per topic to discuss and present your answer.  The discussion questions this week are from Chapter’s 16-17 (Jamsa, 2013).

Chapter 16 topics:

• Define and describe total cost of ownership. List at least 10 items to consider when determining a data center’s total cost of ownership.
• Define and describe a capital expense. How are capital expenses different from operational expenses?
• Define and describe economies of scale and provide a cloud-based example.
• Define and describe “right sizing” as it pertains to cloud computing.
• Define Moore’s law and discus how it might influence cloud migration.
• Given company revenues of $2.5 million and expenses of $2.1 million, calculate the company’s profit and profit margin.

Chapter 17 topics:

• Compare and contrast functional and nonfunctional requirements and provide an example of each.
• Discuss why a designer should avoid selecting an implementation platform for as long as possible during the design process.
• Discuss various trade-offs a designer may need to make with respect to nonfunctional requirements.
• Discuss why the system maintenance phase is often the most expensive phase of the software development life cycle.

Chapter 18 topics:

• Using Google App Engine, create a page that displays the following Python script:
  • print “Content-type: text/htmlnn”
  • print “Cloud Computing, Chapter 18“

NOTE: You are required to use at least two-peer reviewed sources (besides your textbook) to answer the above questions. 

Please go through the attached documents completely before providing the answer 

 Since it is so dangerous, why would designers install software into the kernel at all (or make use of kernel software)? If you were an antivirus designer or maker, what other methods do you utilize to prevent virus?
