The business of the Company
The company is an e-commerce oriented meaning that most of their transactions are done over the internet. Users have to have access to the website of the company from where they can place their orders. Then the transactions are done online, and the products are delivered to the customer. The company deals mostly with electronics such as phones, tablets, televisions, computers, and laptops. The goods are ordered and are delivered within China in a week, but overseas delivery may take months. Most of the transactions that the company does are based in China, but there are a few exceptions whereby it may sell their products overseas.
Information Systems
The organization does most of its transactions online; therefore it should have a well-established information system. The company uses a MySQL database because it bests serves the needs of the organization. The MySQL database allows for the frequent databases to be performed by the company. The database also can handle the multiple documents, and because the company will require many users to create their profiles, then MySQL database will be the best. The information systems have very many components; therefore, the system requires regular system analysis that helps solve the problems of the system. During system analysis, the system is split into parts to determine how they are working to achieve the needs of the organization. During splitting they can identify any problem to the system and try to solve the problems ("Networking systems,").
The computers in the organization are connected independently to the central hub which connects them to the external network via the router. The company has ten computers and printers that are all connected through the central hub. The computer also has a variety of computer resources that help in the network connectivity processes. Apart from the computers, it has a central hub, router, printers, scanners, internet cables that allow for easier operating of the tasks in the organization. Furthermore, the company uses a network operating software called Microsoft NT that allows for the connection to the internet
The human-computer interface that the organization is has on two parts. First, the client end allows for the client to view the product, create an account and buy products. While on the company end it allows them to post their products over the internet and view who have bought products. The website design that is used by the company is the responsive design. It allows individuals to view the best quality of images and also it allows for transactions to be performed by the website ("Different types of website design,").
