Assignment Task

Overview

ViewPoint Hotel (not an existing business) is a hotel chain with branches in Cardiff, Birmingham and London. The hotel remains busy throughout the year due to their unique business model. The hotel chain wishes to build a cloud network that hosts its online  website  and  services,   and  securely   link  their  two   private   networks.  The management   hopes   that    this   secured    network   will    enable   clients    to   book accommodation, make changes (including cancellation), and pay using various means (cash and cards). They also hope to have rewards for their loyal customers.

The requirements for the system areas follows:

This assignment  requires you to configure, deploy and test a working virtual cloud-based system. The assignment consists of two different elements:

1. Part 1: An individual practical section that requires you to develop a network- based system. The weighting of this work is 50% of the overall module grade. You must  submit  a  section   of 2500  words with  the  evidence  of  the   designing, configuring and testing the developed system.

2. Part 2: An  individual  reflective  section of 1500 words that  considers  business continuity and  legal   issues  in  relation  to the  network  system  provided  in  the practical element of the assignment. The section worth 50% of the overall module grade.

(You must pass both parts of this task, pass mark is 40%).

Part 1 - Practical Element Brief

1.    Design the topology/layout of the system to be developed considering all the servers needed for  the support of the core services of the business.

2.    Develop the network system configuring and deploying the servers properly, and apply testing and security analysis to the developed system

Practical Element Information

During the practical/lab sessions you will be required to complete a set of workshops  that will help you to acquire the skills needed for the completion of the practical  coursework (CW1). This practical coursework covers the learning outcomes LO1, LO3, LO4 and LO5. The technical skills required to pass this element is covered in those  sessions. Your work will be marked using the Practical Element Grading Rubric.

Details of the Practical Element Design (10%):

a.    Produce an architecture of the cloud  network to be implemented. Discuss the network topology of each site, the connectivity between sites, explain why this architecture is proposed and what are the IP address ranges which are used for each site.

b.    Explain  which  servers  have  been  considered  and  why.  Explain  how  the proposed servers can support the business needs, and how the features of these servers are used to enhance the functioning and security of the system.

c.    Describe  how the  proposed design supports the  network scalability if the company plans to have more sites in the future, and how testing the security features is considered.

Development (30%):

d.    Demonstrate how the servers at different sites are configured and tested to ensure the   required functionality, and how are the settings of the cloud network are implemented.

e.    Demonstrate the appropriate techniques to show the proper connectivity of the servers, how local nodes of the private networks have access to public networks, how public networks have access to the promoted services, and how the local private servers and data are protected from public access.

f.     Demonstrate a proper level of manual/automated configurations of server, manual/automated deployment of tools, and how the workload has been balanced between the servers.

g.    Demonstrate how the security testing is implemented and with which tools to investigate the key security, what are the proposed solutions that have implemented   to   encounter   these   security   issues,   and   how   different privileges and rights have been applied to the user accounts.

Structure and Presentation (10%):

h.   The  section  should   have  a  good  structure,   nice  presentation  style  and coherence of its content that will help the organisation. Figures should be added  to  present  the  design,  development  and  testing  of  the  proposed system.

i.     The section should  have a clear narrative linking propositions, evidence and judgments. Facts will be clearly differentiated from opinions, all sources used must be evidenced by reference to other works following the APA Reference Style.

Part 2 - Individual Reflective Section Brief (Overall 50%)

You are asked to write a section that will consider business continuity issues in relation to the cloud network provided in the practical element of the assignment. Specifically, in the section, you need to consider the following:

Threat Analysis and Business Impact Analysis: Identify the potential threats that could  emerge  with  respect  to  the  considered  system  which  could   lead  to disruptions of the network and discuss the respective operational and financial impacts.

Business Continuity Plan and Disaster Recovery Plan:  Design and develop a detailed outline of a   BCP for the produced system that will indicate the process steps  that  need  to   be  followed.  Create  a   plan  that  will  demonstrate  the appropriate  actions  for  the  recovery  of  the  business  after  certain  disaster scenarios.

Legislation and Regulations:  Discuss  the  national  and  international  current legislation that should be considered for the developed system.

Individual Reflective Section Information

The is an individual section based on the practical element that you have completed and covers the learning outcomes LO1 and LO2. Your section will be marked using the Reflective Section Grading Rubric.

Details of the Individual Reflective Section

Threat Analysis and Business Impact Analysis (10%):

a.    Apply the threat analysis to the cloud network considering several different case scenarios, which should identify threats that could lead to the network disruptions including what are the servers and connectivity threats.

b.    Apply the business impact analysis to the cloud network considering several different case scenarios, which should identify the respective operational and financial impacts of each case.

Business Continuity Plan and Disaster Recovery Plan (25%):

b.    Develop  a  detailed  disaster  recovery  plan that enables the application of recovery strategies. These strategies should target the successful recovery of  the  cloud  network  and  its  critical  services  investigating  the  required resources, operation and services.

Legislation and Regulations (10%):

a.   Indicate the current the national and international legislation that should be considered for the cloud network.
