3. Executive Summary
Use of modern computing technology is getting more sophisticated. So companies
and customers dream about new and high expectations. That changes the working of old
file system. Advancement of technology allows impact on company and customers. There
are number of companies in market and there are different types of completion between
them. Rapid access to critical information and the ability to get quick result will help
company to grow up in the market. This also helps company a competitive advantage in
different fields like accounting and service environment.
This project is about Globex that offers various types of tools and agriculture services
to clients and farmers. Globex requires a cloud based system that helps their employees to
access data from any location using sensor and devices. Now Globex has various branches
in different areas. So according to employees and customers of Globex, they waste time to
visit each other. So the organization requires a system based on cloud.
Network design involves an upgrade to existing network. The design must consist of
mitigation of risk and less risk of data loss. The old system of Globex can support many
users at a time and the users are vulnerable to attacks and the data is not secure.
4. Project Goals
The Customers need greater admittance and more flexibility and with the help of new
cloud system, Globex can offer better services to their customers. Globex is aware of new
technologies and they know that customer need more services. Internet technology
maximizes competition between various companies. So according to Globex, their Project
goals will be:
 Remote access to accounts: remote terminal at customer site connect to servers utilising
internet that enable clients to make enquiries online without visiting offices.
 Anytime access: by using new network, the employees of the company can access data
or questions from any location.
 As data is centralized, so updates will be easily available which minimizes wastage of
time.
