A Multitiered Client/Server Network (N-Tier)

In a multitiered client/server network, client requests for service are handled by different levels of servers.

Storage, Input, and Output Technology

Primary secondary storage technologies

Magnetic disk:

Hard drives, USB flash drives

RAID: can package hundreds of drives for massive storage requirements

Optical disks

Magnetic tape

Storage networking: SANs

Connect multiple storage devices on a separate high-speed network dedicated to storage

A Storage Area Network (SAN)

A typical SAN consists of a server, storage devices, and

networking devices, and is used strictly for storage. The
SAN stores data on many different types of storage
devices, providing data to the enterprise. The SAN
supports communication between any server and the
storage unit as well as between different storage
devices in the network.

Rack Server

Running a data center of any significant size usually

Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers | Flagship Technologies |
Flagship Tech | Flagshipmeans using servers mounted
in racks to make more efficient use of the available
space. Like other brands, Dell PowerEdge rack servers
are measured according to the height each one occu-
pies in a rack. This “footprint”, so to speak, is measured
in “Us”. The most popular Dell rack servers measure 1U
and 2U while larger servers of 4U, 5U and larger are
also available. Typically, the larger the server, the more
expansion opportunities available.

The Major Types of Software

The relationship among the system software,

application software, and users can be
illustrated by a series of nested boxes.
System software— consisting of operating
systems, language translators, and utility
programs—controls access to the hardware.
Application software, including programming
languages and “fourthgeneration” languages,
must work through the system software to
operate. The user interacts primarily with the
application software.

Managing Hardware and Software Technology

Capacity planning

Process of predicting when hardware system becomes saturated

Ensuring firm has enough computing power for current and future needs

Factors include:
• Maximum number of users
• Impact of current, future software
• Performance measures
Scalability: Ability of system to expand to serve large number of users without breaking down.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) model
• Used to analyze direct and indirect costs to help determine
• Direct costs: hardware, software purchase costs
• Indirect costs: ongoing administration costs, upgrades, maintenance, technical support, training,
utility, and real estate costs
• Hidden costs: support staff, downtime, additional network management
• TCO can be reduced through increased centralization, standardization of hardware and software
resources.
Using technology service providers
Outsourcing
• Using external provider to:
• Run networks.
• Host, manage Web site(s).
• Develop software (offshore software outsourcing)
• Manage IT infrastructures.
• Requires Service Level Agreements (SLAs)

Managing software localization for global business

• Local language interfaces

• English not typically standard at middle, lower levels
• Interfaces are complex: menu bars, error messages, online forms, search results, and so on
• Differences in local cultures
• Differences in business processes
• All of these factors add to TCO of using technology service providers
