Similar Offerings Platforms
Flyonit is one of the most recognised and innovative information technology solutions
provider in the Australia which is providing one some of the best solutions in computer and
the IT support. The network of the organisation is quite strong ranging from Australia to
Spain, Singapore and others. Although it has a strong service provider, one of the best in the
market then also there are other big organisations that are giving quite a large competition to
the Flyonit organisation [1]. The Citysystem.au is one of the organisations that is providing a
tough competition to the Flyonit [7]. The services that the city system is somewhat similar to
that of the Flyonit. Although it can be said that the popularity of the Flyonit is much higher
than that of the citysystem.
Suitable Plugins
Some of the major plugins that that the organisation must implement for the
betterment of the business procedures are the payment gateways which can be used by the
customer for better and safe payment options and the amazon web services API gateway for
the cloud computing systems in the organisation [2]. Other than this some of the important
API that must be implemented for the saas platform are the authentication and the
authorisation user management API, which helps the users to manage the accounts and the
customer help desks. The operational data store API which helps in many things including
the initiation of the bulk data loads, the replication of the data and others. One of the other
major API which helps in the API platform is the usage metric collector and the logging API,
which helps in the support and monetizing the applications.

Suitable Hosting Platform
Software as a service which is commonly known as the SAAS can be hosted various
platforms, one of the best such hosting platform is the CloudOYE. It provides a flexibity, and
reduces and the time of the market to keep the users away from any complexity. It is based in
the pay as you go model on using the platform proficiencies [8]. Some of the key advantages
of this model is the it provides custom built solutions , 99.95% Stringent SLA backed uptime
and the round the clock support. Hence it can be said that for any organization it is one of the
best hosting platform and the Flyonit organization can trust in the platform.
Software for Developing a Report
One of the best software that the Flyonit organisation can use for the purpose of
writing and developing reports is the Zoho Reports. It is one of the best software available for
the developing online business interliigebbce reports. Some of the advanced feature that the
software offers are it can be connected to any data sources, making it one of the most suitable
for the cloud services specially the saas platform [9]. The software helps in data analysis,
with a very easy interface. IT also helps the users with the formulas and data blending which
helps the users in accessing cross platform data. For the help of the users it provides the users
with books and materials to understand the platform completely. With the use of this platform
the Flyonit can register huge amount for profits by using this platform for developing report.
Back End Databases to Produce Reports
A database report can be said as the formulated result of the database quarries and
helps in useful decision making and analysis. In order to get the best result there are various
tools that can be used , one of the best used technique is the use of the structured quarry
language for example the Mongo DB servers [10]. This can also be merged with the ZOHO
for producing better reports. As the ZOHO supports the DB, therefore it can be much helpful

4FLYONIT
for the Flyonit organisation for producing better reports. It will not only help the organisation
in storing it in a better way in the cloud platform but also help in accessing the data remotely
and in a secured manner. Hence helping the organisation for the betterment of the business.
Security options for software
In order to get the best security and protect data all over the organisation some of the
common but most secured way are using the Virtual private network that is the organisation
must use a secured private network in the office space in order to get extra protection from
the outside internet world as it acts as a shield. One of the other major way is encrypting the
mails, that is it organisation must use secured channels for the transmission of the mails , this
can help the organisation in regulating fake mails and other scams and phasing attracts. The
organisation can also opt for the extra net B2b or the B2c connections which are similar to
the virtual private networks but with more secured connections [3]. Using authenticated and
the most updated anti malware software’s can also help inn regulating the security access of
the organisations. This helps in the cloud system as well as some of the advanced anti viruses
searches for the bugs in the cloud servers. One of the minor thing which can also be improved
is enhancing the security login options, that giving access to only the authorised user the
access of the data. That is not all the employees in the organisation would be able to use the
data of the other employees [12]. The use of the cloud servers is itself one of the most
secured way for storing the data, as it would require the user to every time login in the servers
and hence none of the other people would access the data.
Off the shelf software that can be configured for purpose
One of the important software that is needed to be configured for the betterment of
the project is the Mongo DB data base software. In order to get the maximum out of the cloud
servers the Mongo DB database needs to be configured according to the specifications

5FLYONIT
Coding languages to build software offering
One of the major coding language that can be used by the Flyonit for including all the
resources together like the cloud platforms , the Mongo DB data bases the Zoho reports is the
Python language. This is one of the most versatile language which includes very easily. Also
there are very large number of the developers available in the marker who can easily work for
the same. Python can also include java and the c program files. The python also helps in the
cloud computing SAAS coding.
User management:
The user management is one of the other key task to be done in order to get the
maximum in software as a service. There needs to be a proper user face for both the users and
the administrators [11]. User management is the core part for the Flyonit services. It is also
on of the basic security essential for the organisation. User managements helps the admins to
control and regulate the access of the users on board and off board. The cloud system
software that is saas can also help the organisation by helping the admins to restrict the data
available for the users.
Build offering:
The build offering is the final file that is been delivered to the user at the end of a
certain project is completed [4]. IT can be said that the user would not know what time of the
process or function is running in the background of a certain application. The only thing the
user gets is the .exe or. Jar file which when installed in the system works as the user directed
the Flyonit to develop. By the use of the SAAS the application produced are in the format of
the extension of the .executive file or the .exe file.

6FLYONIT
Back end databases
One of the best application that the organisation can use for the work of both
the report and background data base is the Mongo DB [10]. This is one of the major
advantage of the cloud services offers. Mongo dB is one of the latest generation database
application which helps in the cloud platform.
Designing Layout and Interface
The user layout and the interface which is to be designed must be a simple to use and
secured. There must be different platforms for the admins and the users. There must be one
supervisor panel which can look after both the junior administrators and the uses. Also there
must be surety checks for the users [5]. Visibility of the system status is also one of the major
thing to be implemented. Flexibility and efficiency of the interface makes the clients happier.
