Networking Case Study: Designing a Feasible and Efficient Network with Cloud Computing

CP5631 SP1 2018 ASSESSMENT 2
Networking Case Study
Task 1: Executive Summary
The main aim of the project is to design a network which would be directly
justifying the aspect which is related to the concept of efficiency and feasibility.
The main point of highlight in the concept of the design is directly related to
the aspect of the concept which is related to feasibility and efficiency. The
main adaptation which would be made with the implementation of the design
is the concept of cloud computing which would be directly enhancing the
sector of cost and security. The recommendation of the design is based on the
factors of weighted design matrix. The concept of the weighted design matrix
is very much similar to the concept of the WDM which can be implemented in
the process of procurement process. The devices which would be selected for
the design would be involving the features of cost and service related features.

The work station in the organization would be accessing the environment of the
desktop which are directly provided by a cloud service provider. The access
would be done by means of a private cloud infrastructure which is created in
house and which is located in the Sydney. The current contact of the
organization is $850 per workstation with the requirement in the field of
services and hardware. The factor of cost can be considered as one of the most
important factors in the design concept which would be also involving the
different security measures involved within their implementation.
