Report: Cloud Computing Solution and Implementation for WEPAU

This report presents a cloud computing solution for WEPAU, a payment gateway application, addressing its need for an improved payroll management system. The solution proposes a hybrid cloud architecture, leveraging Windows Server 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2017 within a virtualized environment using VMWare. The report outlines stakeholder analysis, functional and performance requirements, and the implementation process, including server installations and testing procedures. It details the conceptual and physical design of the cloud infrastructure, emphasizing the integration of public and private cloud components for data storage and access. The conclusion highlights the benefits of cloud computing for WEPAU in enhancing business processes and providing opportunities for improvement in its payroll system. The report includes a bibliography of relevant academic sources.

Overview
Proposed Solution of Cloud for WEPAU
WEPAU has a huge role in the particular development of a specific system of payroll
as well as the management system of the account. It has been observed that there are a
number of recent problems which can be easily addressed faced by the organization. A
storage based upon the cloud is really very much utilised for developing the system of
information like that data can be easily stored depending upon the increment. As per the
stakeholder analysis has been performed for directly identifying the stakeholders, it has been
observed that the Management of Wepau, IT of Wepau, Customers of Wepau and all the staff
of vendors form the stakeholders which has been identified for developing the management
system of the payroll. As per the plan of the analysis of the business has been taken into
account, it has been noted that the system of payroll is really very much essential for
involving the intelligence of business, functionality of HR and also a number of features of
the recruitment. Al the functions which are financial are known to be well managed by the
particular software of payroll and it will be requiring to be well aligned with the recent
framework of the business of Wepau. As per the analysis of the recent state, all the several
clients of Wepau are not at all able to properly access the information regarding payroll and
hence there is a lot of problem in the management of their information regarding payment.
The specification of the functional requirements will be involving masters, search, employee,
report and the salary. There are a number of performance requirements for developing the
particular system of the payroll.
Implementation of the network for WEPAU which is virtualised
A virtual environment has been utilised for installing the server of the windows and
the scenario of the needs has been particularly evaluated for identifying the number of all the

servers that will be required in the deployment for developing the exact framework of the
network. It has been observed that the specific Windows Server 2012 R2 has been utilised for
properly centralising the authentication procedure and also in the management of both the
privacy as well as the security of the information which has been seen to be shared in
between all the employees who will be working within the organization. A number of steps
have been clearly utilised for the main purpose of installing the windows server within the
VMWare and also for the purpose of configuring it with IIS such that it can be utilised for
properly hosting the organization’s website. All the several screenshots have been clearly
provided which have involved everything starting from the beginning of the installation of
the Windows Server 2012 utilising the VmWare till the final step of installing the IIS Web
Server within the web server in the particular machine which is virtual. After this, there is the
installation of the server of SQL on some server of the windows. The process starts with the
planning interface of the installation center wizard of the server of SQL and the several
details like all the hardware as well as the software requirements till the successful
completion of the installation of the SQL server 2017 installation within the Windows Server
2012 R2. After that there has been the testing of the cloud which has involved both the
functional as well as the non-functional tests. Both the tests are to be performed for
completing with the proper testing of the cloud.
Descriptions of the Organization WEPAU
WEPAU has been considered to be a particular application which is known to be
acting like a gateway of the payment for several kinds of organizations and the application is
seen to be providing a large cashback and also a number of rewards to all of their clients. The
organization has been seen to be a fully new star up company which has been particularly
looking for setting up their specific application and also incrementing their business on a
basis which will be global. There are a number of considerations of the solution needs which

have involved longevity, specific diversity of the support, expense, data which has been
existing and ease of the utilization. It has been found that the pilot research as well as testing
are seen to be executed recurrently much before the computable research which has been
largely scaled with a specific endeavour for eluding time as well as capital used on the project
which has been premeditated in an inefficient manner. The particular needed solution which
has been needed for the organization WEPAU is actually the cloud architecture which has
been hybrid which will be very much helpful for all of them in properly taking up their
respective system upon to a specific cloud. There has been a conceptual design which has
been particular aspired for both deploying as well as hosting a number of applications. There
has been a well concept regarding the data hub of the WEPAY payroll and the CIDP which is
the common integration as well as the platform for the development. The physical design is
basically described by the project which has been properly concentrated upon the
incorporation of the very important framework which will be constituting between their cloud
which is public and the provider of the private cloud.
Conclusion
It can be concluded that the system of cloud is really very much helpful for the
specific organization because they will be able to take their specific business upon the
internet. On the other hand, the system of the payroll management will be providing a much
different opportunity for WEPAU in improving the recent processes of the business. It has
been found that a model of the cloud computing has been required for developing the
database and also for creating a pool of resources which has been shared that will be accessed
by a number of several users from separate locations.
