2CLOUD BASED SOLUTIONS
Introduction:
The cloud based service is considered as the on-demand services, storage services and
networking services which are provided through the internet (He, Yan & Da Xu, 2014). This
service works on the infrastructure of the cloud computing. There are several benefits of the
cloud based services which are the increased scalability, functionality and capacity. With this
services, this also provides reduced maintenance costs. Organizations can take help from the
cloud based solutions to focus on the core business of them.
In this case, various aspect of the cloud based service will be discussed and will be
investigated.
To discuss the various aspects of the cloud based services first the non-functional
necessities of the cloud based services will be evaluated. This includes the critical system
qualities, user interface requirements, system interface and system constraints. In this case, all
the non-functional aspects of the ‘FURPS+’ acronym will be discussed. Then the review of
the cloud based services will be given which includes the weakness and strengths of the cloud
based solutions. Further, the approach of the SDLC will be evaluated which will include the
pros and cons of the Predictive SDLC and the cons and pros of the Adaptive SDLC. From the
discussion, either predictive SDLC or the adaptive SDLC will be recommended for the
project.
Non-Functional Requirements:
The non-functional requirements define specific criteria which are used for judgement
of an operation which runs in a system. In this case, the non-functional requirements of the
cloud-based services will be evaluated using the ‘FURPS+’ acronym. To cover this acronym
functionality, usability, reliability, performance and security of the cloud-based services will
be discussed.
