OnBuy is an e-commerce startup group that requires to set up its offices and network structure to ensure that it can effectively dive into the task of making commodity available to its consumers. The startup intends to move into a new environment and set up its business premises to ensure that customers' diverse needs. Below is a description of the information systems required by OnBuy to be able to undertake its required task within the community efficiently.

Databases play a crucial role in allowing customers to place orders complemented by the virtual shop successfully. Nonetheless, databases ensure that the system operates optimally in utilizing the business logic that ensures that all the various relationships between the objects are addressed to facilitate effective reporting and data analytics. The database structure should ensure that the database structure is simple and components ability to exist individually. Nonetheless, the database design entails normalization of the tables to ensure that data redundancy is maintained, resulting in better results due to the utilization of a well-structured database. Nonetheless, various architectures play a vital role in ensuring that some of the database updates are efficiently undertaking the event-driven placing of an order using the shopping cart. A well-structured database will ensure that the organizational inventory can perform analytics reports regarding which commodities are highly purchased by the customers.

System analysis entails ensuring that the software can be successfully deployed into the organization's operations to ensure that the customers' diverse business wants are satisfied (Duran, 2018). Therefore, it is efficient for various components of the organization to be devolved to ensure that there is a database administrator and system administrator. The database administrator will allow the respective authorization to employees of the organization based on the roles they are intended to achieve while working for the organization. Equally, he is responsible for producing reports suggesting which areas of concern need to be addressed. On the other hand, the system admin will monitor the system resources and restrict access to some system and organizational resources based on the assigned employee roles by the human resources department.

System security and data security are vital in a digital era where cybercrime and denial of service attacks are rising. Therefore, as the CTO of OnBuy, I will ensure that high levels of security are maintained by ensuring that the ICT policy is constantly updated and utilizes various levels of firewalls to ensure that organizational data and customer information are securely stored. To eliminate security threats at the point of entry of the internet into the organization, a firewall is put in place to filter websites that are not required to access the organizational network. Secondly, I will ensure that employees use computers and laptops that have been configured to be accessible within the organizational network only. Lastly, I will ensure that the website utilizes secure shell protocols that enhance website security to mitigate against denial of service attacks.

On the other hand, the organizational network needs to ensure that it's secure at all levels. This goes a long way in ensuring that the database administrator ensures that the various interactions between the user interface layer and the hardware layer efficiently communicate to ensure that real-time processing and payments can be undertaken successfully by various parties. Nonetheless, the network administrator's task is to recommend the best gadgets and policies that will ensure that the organizational services are available to the consumers. OnBuy being an e-business, fully relies on internet connectivity to ensure that potential consumers can place orders regardless of their geographic position.

OnBuy will ensure that it employs high stands of human-computer interaction applied to the website visitors that would see them purchase products. The effective user interface is a subset of human-computer interaction that ensures that software is in such a way that is effective in meeting the desired objective. Nonetheless, a well-designed user interface would suit the varied demands of the diverse ICT adopters.

OnBuy web design will utilize the request/response architecture to allow interactions using the business logic between the application layer and the organization's data layer. Nonetheless, the website needs to gadget-friendly in that it can automatically resize to fit the display width of the various devices that the visitors to the website use. Additionally, the corporate website utilizes the secured HTTPS to ensure the safety of the website's visitors. Lastly, our organization conforms to global standards. Therefore, our website will have detailed terms of service documents and an ease of use document at the website's footer.
