6 Read the following case study thoroughly and answer the following questions:
Laxmi bank is one of the largest private sector banks of India. It has an extensive network
of more than 200 branches. It offers banking services to retail as well as corporate clients.
The bank faced a challenge in integrating multi-pronged database management system into
a centralized system. The IT department of the bank also realized that the computing
capabilities of its PCs and servers were not proportionately distributed among all its
branches. Each branch had its database management system stored in a traditional way on
![Page 9: ASSIGNMENT DRIVE FALL 2014 PROGRAM MBADS/ MBAFLEX ... MBA 3 G4 ISM.pdf · assignment drive fall drive 2014 program mbads (sem 3/sem 5) mbaflex/ mba (sem 3) pgdismn (sem 1) subject](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7caa82ca603f14ca4c57bc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
the disk. The total cost of operating and maintaining the current IT infrastructure was very
high and the fundamental shortcomings added to the costs. Moreover, there were also
recurrent problems due to the malfunctioning of the currently operational database
management system. Therefore, the bank’s top management decided to fix the problem and
operationalise a robust database management system. The bank hired an external database
technology consulting firm called AKPY Info systems Limited.
AKPY divided the entire IT infrastructure of the bank around two verticals. The retail
banking vertical and the corporate banking vertical. All the individual database servers from
the individual branches were removed. The entire database system was made virtual such
that the managers and the staff can access only the required information (related to retail
banking or corporate banking) from the respective centralised data centers. There were only
two such centralised data centers (one for retail banking and another for corporate
banking) that were managed centrally. Staff and managers could access the information
through their PCs and laptops. Centralised database management system complemented the
security system by bringing in authentication through a unified ID management server.
Managers and officers of the bank were able to process half a million transactions per
month in real time after the new implementation. There were significant savings in the cost
and also in the consumption of power. Now there were no problems with regard to
imbalances in the load across various network servers. Due to centralised data management,
top management could keep an eye on the functioning of various branches. Hence the cases
of fraud and cheating reduced considerably. The bank managers could also process the loan
applications in reduced time since the customer’s previous records could be accessed at the
click of the button and approval from the higher authorities could be obtained in real time.
Moreover the new system also brought in many applications that helped local managers in
the decision making process.
a. List the uses of centralized data management
b. What steps Laxmi bank need to take if it were to change its centralised database
system to a distributed database system in future?

5 ABC company is an internet service provider. The main goal of ABC is to provide 24
X7X365 storage capacity, storage management and internet service to the customers. It
now needs a solution that will eliminate downtime. Downtime is nothing but the time
during which a computer or computer system is down, or inoperative due to hardware or
software failure. We also need the flexibility in quick response to both the development in
customer base and additional capacity and service demands of the customers.
ABC company took the help of network storage infrastructure software provider to achieve
their goals by providing support for end to end redundancy and bondless scalability.
By creating a scalable storage network with the ability to confidentially deliver the
24X7X365 reliability, and speed that outsourcing customers demand, it has enabled the
ISP/SSP to attract and retain customers and substantially build its business. As the same
time, the solution has effectively lowered ABC company’s total cost of ownership for its
entire storage solution: the IP Stor/CNP union has enabled a painless, flexible cost
effective, scalable solution. The complementary IP Stor/CNT solution has allowed to its
customers easily and cost- effectively.
