Assignment 1 - Project Charter EduStream
1 INTRODUCTION
The Content Delivery Network (CDN) is referred to as a geographically distributed server
group that work together and offers content over the internet server. Through this server,
loading of content like HTML pages, javascript, videos and images and their transfer
becomes much faster and easier as well. In order to avoid internet traffic, Netflix, Amazon,
Facebook each social content delivery platforms have started using CDN. The aim of this
project is to develop a client application for EduStream system that will hold three pilot
content delivery nodes in three different locations of Perth, Sydney and Brisbane. The details
business case for this project is analysed in terms of internal (SWOT) analysis. The project
planning overview, key milestones, project assumptions, ROM Cost and Revenue Estimates
and stakeholder analysis details are also elaborated in this paper.
2 Business Analysis
2.1 Reason for the Project and General Approach
In the real application field implementation of pilot project has become much frequent. Most
of the large business organizations are these days using the concept of pilot programming for
developing client server. Pilot program is a trial experiment or short term experimental
project that helps EduStream Company in managing risks and validate commercial profit as
well. It is important for the company to maintain a positive ROI in upcoming 5 years. In
order to take and apply new ideas for business success Pilot project is essential. The CDN
node is comprises of web server, client database, open connect appliances, system health
management and games server. The network and client server will give effective services to
their clients as soon as it implements.
2.2 Stakeholder Analysis
EduStream Company is lagging their commercial profit due to not conducting feasibility
study properly throughout the project delivery life cycle period. The roles of the project
stakeholders are to identify project objectives, aim and goals and share that among the project
team associates. The stakeholders are needed to be engaged to their assigned job roles and
duties.
With the successful implementation of the client server the users of EduStream Company
would be able to gain centralized control over the application, data and network as well. It
helps to facilitate tasks of updating information and all other resources. It will give
scalability, flexibility and easy maintenance capabilities to the clients. The overall network
traffic congestion will also be reduced with the application. The above mentioned technical
client application architecture (Pilot system) will be established in Perth. It will increase the
company’s load sharing abilities, DB replications and batch updates. The cookie cutter
solution will help to fix all bug issues. Hardware, software and node level technical issues
will all be reduced with the implementation. The data centre application will also become
easier and efficient than previous.

PART 2: WHAT DO OUR CLIENTS WANT FROM THIS PROJECT?
 Clients will be able to identify and download application whenever required
 The application will run on any android and ios handheld devices
 The application can run on smart TVs, PC and hardware
 The clients require RTSP control interface, CODES as well as thin client
applications
 The clients are interested to interact with accurate web server
 During node sharing clients may require to point node web server or OCA
 The clients require effective efficient and faster application with high security
2.3 SWOT Analysis
INTERNAL ISSUES OF IMPORT FOR EdMI AND THE EDUSTREAM
PROJECT
STRENGTHS
 The web server of the company will be able to form a detail front end design
 The clients would be able to access content of the web server
 The database can store details clients information and gives opportunities to the
clients so that they can access information regardless of the location and time
WEAKNESSES
 If proper security mechanism are not undertaken then information will be lost from the
server easily
 The content and clients information must have appropriate security and if it is not
incorporated then clients details will be disclosed easily.
