WEBB’S STORES CASE STUDYIntroductionA recognized and renowned regional retailer of Australia is the Webb’s Stores. The main business of this company is to sell food items. It also sells some of the specialty stuffs. The company has two original data centers (Arora, Parashar & Transforming, 2013). They are in Sydney and Melbourne. Apart from these two main data centers, the company even has some of the regional data centers in Brisbane, Bathurst, Port Macquarie, Auckland and Wagga. Recently, they have decided to move their database from MS SQL Server 2012 R2 to IaaS instance. Webb’s Stores have taken a decision of undertaking cloud computing for their business. The problem with this decision is that the data management, the operational and application complexities have become much complicated and they are not able to handle them.They have even decided to close down the regional data center in Auckland because of its traditional infrastructure (Avram, 2014). They could have easily replaced or updated its existing infrastructure. All the services and the important data are shifted to the cloud database. A Risk and Security Workshop is planned to run for accessing the security risks, threats and the possible control methods, which are need for a hybrid cloud.The following report covers a detailed discussion on the Webb’s Stores case study. The report also briefs about the benefits of data migration to cloud IaaS infrastructure. The threats of data migration to cloud are also provided in the report. The report even describes the use of cloud in case of removal and backup of the records. The report further helps to understand howto protect and control the access to the data and services for migration of data. Proper suggestions and recommendations are given in the following report.Discussion1. Migration of Data1.a Type of Security DeployedWebb’s Stores have decided to move their database from MS SQL Server 2012 R2 to IaaS instance. They are worried about the security of their data and services. The type of security policy that should be deployed is the authentication and authorization policy (Dinh et al., 2013). Authorization is the permission given to a particular organization or individual for performing a task or job. Authentication is the process of verification of the identity of an individual, who will be performing a task. This security policy is extremely important in case of cloud computing as it provides permission and sanctions the activity to be performed. The opennormative format of data, used for authentication purpose in cloud is the SAML or Security Assertion Markup Language (Garg, Versteeg & Buyya, 2013). Webb’s stores is moving their datato IaaS instance. The best IaaS instances the Microsoft Azure and AWS. The data moved to cloud is bulk in quantity. This type of policy would be helpful for them for protection of their data and services during migration.Student NameStudent IDPage 3
