    The document discusses the key resources of an information system. It identifies five core resources: 1) Hardware - the tangible physical components like computers, servers, and peripheral devices. 2) Software - the operating systems and application programs that run on hardware. 3) People - human users are a vital component who operate systems and procedures. 4) Data - stored information in databases that can be queried and analyzed. Big data has increased data's importance. 5) Network - the transmission infrastructure that connects multiple systems to share information.

    The key takeaways are that an information system converts data into information and is composed of integrated networks of hardware, software, data, people, and networks. It provides access to information when needed.

    The 5 resources of an information system are hardware, software, people, data, and networks.

    Software has two types - system software like operating systems which manage hardware operations, and application software which performs specific tasks like spreadsheets. The primary system software is the operating system.

    INTRODUCTION
    An information system is integrated and co-ordinate network of components, which
    combine together to convert data into information.Information systems are used to run
    inter organizational supply chains and electronic markets. For instance, corporations
    use information systems to process financial accounts, to manage their human
    resources, and to reach their potential customers with online promotions. Many major
    companies are built entirely around information systems. These include eBay, a largely
    auction marketplace.

    Resources of Information System


    An Information System is generally integrated and co-ordinate a network of
    components, which combine together to convert data into information. The information
    system provides access of information when it is required. The information system is a
    set of the component which generally helps a system.
    Resources of Information System:
    There are 5 resources of information system which are given below:

     Hardware:
    The system components which can physically touch – the system
    unit (tower, desktop, laptop), internal devices and peripheral devices (keyboards
    and monitors) – are called hardware and it is important to remember that basic
    definition: The hardware are the parts of the computer that are tangible and can
    be touched.
     Peripheral devices are provided in many other ways, but think of them as
    hardware that surrounds the system unit. These peripherals devices may be
    connected by wired or wireless technology to the system unit.

     Software:
    We know that, the hardware needs to know what to do, and that
    is the role of software. The software may be divided into two types: first system
    software and second application software. Primary piece of system software is
    the operating system, such as Windows or iOS, which manages the hardware’s
    operation. Application software is perform for specific tasks, such as handling a
    spreadsheet, creating a document, or designing a Web page.

     People:
    The human element is the most important component of
    information system and the people that are needed to run the system and the
    procedures they follow so that the knowledge in the huge databases and data
    warehouses can be turned into learning that can interpret what has happened in
    the past and guide future action.

     Data:
    Data is one of the most important component which is generally
    store in form of information in a database system and a database is a place
    where data is collected and from which it can be retrieved by querying it using
    one or more specific criteria.All types of data store in warehouse without knowing
    whatever form that an organization needs. The databases and data warehouses
    have assumed even greater importance in information systems with the
    emergence of “big data, a term for the truly massive amounts of data that can be
    collected and analyzed.

     Network:
    The network is defined as a system in which more than the
    system is connected through a transmission media. It provides an interface to
    receive a piece of information or send information. It is also one of the best
    resources in the information system.
