OBJECTIVES: •Discuss the special information requirements of an enterprise-sized corporation •Identify information systems and software used in the functional units of an enterprise •Describe and list general purpose and integrated information systems used throughout an enterprise •Describe and list types of technologies used throughout an enterprise •Describe virtualization, cloud computing, and grid computing •Discuss the computer hardware needs and solutions for an enterprise •Discuss high availability, scalability, and interoperability •Determine why computer backup is important and how it is accomplished •Discuss the steps in a disaster recovery plan ENTERPRISE COMPUTING -the use of computer in networks that encompass a variety of different operating systems,protocols, and network architectures -Types of enterprise include : Retail, Manufacturing, Service, Wholesale, Government, Educational, Transportation Information System in the Enterprise -a set of hardware,software, data, people, and procedure that work together to produce information -Computer-aid design (CAD) --> computer special software that aid in engineering, drafting, and design -Computer-aid engineering (CAE) --> use computer to test product design -Computer-aid manufacturing (CAM) --> to control production equipment -Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) --> to integrate many different operations of the manufacturing process -Material Requirement Planning (MRP) --> uses software to help monitor and control processes related to product -Material Requirement Planning II (MRPII) --> and extension of MRP and also includes software that helps in schedule Enterprise technology and methodology -Portals = collection of information presented on a Web page that are interesting for a particular job function -Data Warehouse= a huge database that stores and manages the data required to analyze historical and current transaction -EDI = control business data and info within enterprise -Extranet= portion of a company’s network that allows customers or suppliers of a company to access parts of an enterprise’s intranet -Web Service = to create product and B2B interaction over the internet -Document management system = allows for storage and management of a company's document -Workflow = process that identifies the specific set of steps involved in completing a particular project or business process -Virtual private Network (VPN) = provide users and customers with a secure connection to the company network server Virtualization -The practice of sharing or pooling computing resources -Server Virtualization = Provides the capability to divide a physical server logically into many virtual server -Storage Virtualization =Provides the capability to create a single logical storage device from many physical storage devices Cloud Computing -An internet service that provides computing needs to computer users Grid Computing -Combines many servers and/or personal computers on a network to act as one large computers Enterprise Hardware -Large organization to manage and store information and data using devices gear RAID =Duplicates data and implements duplication in different way Network attach storage (NAS) =a server that provides storage to users and information system attached to the network Storage Area network (SAN) =A high speed network provide storage to other servers to which it is attached High Availability system
-running and performing task continuously without stopping Scalability =A measure of how well computer hardware, software, of an information system can grow to meet increasing performance Interoperability =ability for an information system to share information with other information systems within an enterprise
