Unit III Introduction

In this unit, we will continue our discussion of the information system components (from Unit I) and how they can be designed to support business processes (from Unit II).

We are now moving on to two very important components of an information system: hardware and databases. Business professionals need an understanding of how networks of hardware are configured, used, and secured. It is also important to understand why we use databases and how data is stored and retrieved to support decision making. It can take years to become an expert on either of these two topics. In this unit, we will just cover the basics.

As always, let me know if you have any questions.

Instructions

Provide a brief introduction to IoT.

Present the argument to the Falcon

Security CEO that switching to a more

dynamic database structure (NoSQL

real-time database) will meet the

demands of IoT.

Introduce some features of the database

you chose, whether it is MongoDB,

Cassandra, or another database.

Describe how switching to a more

dynamic database will give Falcon

Security a competitive advantage.

For decades, relational databases remained

essentially unchanged; data was

segmented into specific chunks for columns,

slots, and repositories, also called

structured data. However, in this Internet of

Things (IoT) era, databases need to be

reengineered because the very nature of

data has changed. Today’s databases need

to be developed with the needs of IoT in

mind and have the ability to perform real-

time processing to manage workloads that

are dynamic. For example, relational

databases should be able to work with real-

time data streaming and big data (an

example was presented in the Unit III

Lesson).

Scenario: Falcon Security wants their

customers to be able to view security video

footage in real-time and provide customers

with the ability to query video footage for

viewing. Choosing a database solution such

as MongoDB would allow Falcon Security to

store customer video footage in the same

database as the metadata.

To do this, Falcon Security needs a way to

manage the demands of real-time data

streaming for real-time analytics. Conduct

some research for a NoSQL database

application, such as MongoDB or

Cassandra, that could meet this need. How

would switching to a real-time database

solution help Falcon Security remain

competitive? Create a PowerPoint

presentation that includes the components

listed below.

Your presentation must be a minimum of six

slides in length (not counting the title and

reference slides), and you must use at least

two academic resources. Any information

from a resource used must be cited and

referenced in APA format.
