  2. NTC 302 Week 5 Cloud Migration Security **************************************** NTC 302 Week 1 Cloud Migration For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com NTC 302 Week 1 Cloud Migration You are a systems engineer contracted to move The Grass is Greener, Inc. (GIG, Inc.) from their on-premises data center to the cloud. GIG, Inc. is a large landscaping company that has outgrown their current IT structure. They have a strong online presence that provides 50% of their new customer traffic and the convenient online payment section for customers. Both of these front-ends are connected to a back-end database that houses critical data that includes inventory, scheduling, pricing history, and personal identifiable information of their customers. Below are the company's requirements:

  3. The company has a webserver and database that they definitely want to move to the cloud. The system will need to be accessed from different offices as well as in the field. • • Secure network connectivity to the environment is a must. They also have a file server that they are considering migrating based on long-term costs. • The company keeps files for a period of 5 years for compliance reasons. • Company management is very concerned about increased technology costs. • Last year, the company lost several thousand records due to a hard drive failure. They would like to ensure that any solution provided takes into account redundancy and reliability. • Create a 2- to 3-page summary that discusses the benefits and concerns of moving to a cloud environment. Ensure you include this information in your summary: • Costs • Technology • High level design options (IaaS, SaaS and PaaS) • Security • Reliability Submit your summary.

  4. Note: This assignment is accumulative, and you will see its evolution as you complete each week. Ensure that you design for a complete solution, but you can update each part before adding it to the final presentation. **************************************** NTC 302 Week 1 Discussion Infrastructure, Software, and Platform as a Service For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Your company wants to explore moving much of their data and information technology infrastructure to the cloud. The company is a small online retailer and requires a database and a web storefront. Currently, only IT is over budget on database maintenance. The initial

  5. analysis points to significant cost savings by moving to a cloud environment. Research the differences between Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS). Discuss the differences between IaaS, SaaS, and PaaS. Give an example of the appropriate use of each of the cloud models (Iaas, SaaS, and PaaS). **************************************** NTC 302 Week 2 Cloud Migration Resiliency For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com NTC 302 Week 2 Cloud Migration: Resiliency Last week, you discussed GIG, Inc.'s benefits and concerns with moving to the cloud. This week, you will create a high-level diagram in Microsoft® Visio® of the resilient aspects of the system provided by AWS. The

  6. diagram should cover the system architecture in the AWS environment. Specific AWS (e.g., AWS Availability Zones, Elastic Load Balancing, Amazon CloudFront, etc.) that will provide reliability, availability, and continuity across the migrated environment need to be included. Also, ensure you include the following: • Costs • Specific AWS • Connectivity across multiple availability zones At least one AWS that will support your design for fault tolerance (if one system were to fail) • Submit your diagram. **************************************** NTC 302 Week 2 Discussion Business Continuity Compliance For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com

  7. Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Many businesses today benefit by passing compliance certification standards for security and data recovery. These certifications are often tied to business continuity. Discuss and defend how availability zones in AWS are used to help meet the business continuity compliance standards. **************************************** NTC 302 Week 3 Cloud Migration Performance For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com NTC 302 Week 3 Cloud Migration Performance

  8. In Week 1, you discussed GIG, Inc.'s benefits and concerns with moving to the cloud. Last week, you created a high-level diagram of a system using built-in AWS that provided reliability, availability, and continuity across the migrated environment. This week, choose one of the following database scenarios: • Transactional database (e.g., eCommerce) • Analytic database (query very large datasets) Internet scale application (serves content and stores both structured or unstructured data) • Create a diagram in Microsoft® Visio® that applies built-in AWS that visualizes the chosen system and implementation steps. Create a 6- to 8-slide presentation that outlines the following: • Overview of AWS database options • The best AWS database service for the chosen scenario • Support the decision with evidence • Outline the key features of the given database Submit your diagram and presentation. ****************************************

  9. NTC 302 Week 3 Discussion Troubleshooting Performance For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Your supervisor comes to you with the following issue: GIG, Inc. is having a problem handling the amount of traffic from their online estimate portion of their website for their customers. They are specifically having issues between 3 pm EST and 7 pm EST. These is the busiest period of time. Your supervisor states that he has heard that when the system migrates to the cloud, there may be cost-effective options. Research the design of performance scalability in the AWS environment. Ensure you research how AWS cloud uses specific services to assist with performance.

  10. Discuss and defend some options that you can provide to your supervisor. **************************************** NTC 302 Week 4 Cloud Migration Security For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com NTC 302 Week 4 Cloud MigrationSecurity In Week 1, you discussed GIG, Inc.'s benefits and concerns with moving to the cloud. In Week 2, you created a high-level diagram of a system using built-in AWS that provided reliability, availability, and continuity across the migrated environment. Last week, you chose a database and created a diagram that visualized the chosen system and implementation steps. This week, you will create a Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet and provide a summary for the critical IAM structure provided below. This will be used for all systems and ensure all users have only the privileges needed for their job.

  11. The company has three levels of access: • Customer (Minimal-web only) Administrative (Implementation-access to Cloud environment at a programmatic level and operational level) • • System (The requirement(s) for system to system access) The company security compliance controls need to ensure that each level of access is only allowed to authorized users/systems. Create a Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet matrix listing all applicable information for each level of access, and ensure you include this information: AWS that provide access control (network access control list, domain name service, security groups, etc.) • • Types of restrictions (port, protocols, etc.) The specific implementation matrix for each level (security groups will only allow port 22 to this level) • • A basic set of IAM users, groups, and roles Write a 1-page summary in Microsoft® Word about the structures and security benefits. Submit your spreadsheet and summary. ****************************************

  12. NTC 302 Week 4 Discussion The Cost of Security For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com NTC 302 Week 4 Discussion The Cost of Security Post a total of 3 substantive responses over 2 separate days for full participation.
