What is Internet

Page 2: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Internet Introduction

Key Definitions: Internet: The internet is a global network of

interconnected networks, connecting private, public and university networks in one cohesive unit.

Intranet: An intranet is a private enterprise network that uses internet and web technologies for information gathering and distribution within an organization.

Extranet: An extranet is a community of interest created by extending an intranet to selected entities external to an organization.

How to get connected to the Internet

The basic requirements are a computer, a modem, a Internet Connections, and a contract with an

Internet Service Provider (ISP).

What is a Network?

A group of two or more devices, that areable to communicate with one another

Computer networks: inter-connection ofcomputers Between two and millions of devices interconnected

The telephone network: interconnection oftelephones and switches

Page 5: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Types of Networks

There are three types of networks -1. LAN (Local Area Network)

A LAN is a network that cover a relatively small geographical area, such as a home, Lab, office building or school.The devices can be connected with either wired or wireless communication media.2. MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)

A MAN is a network designed for a metropolitan area, typically a city or country. MANs fall between LANs & WANs on the size typically consists of multiple LANs. 3. WAN (Wide Area Network)

A WAN is a network that cover a large geographical area, The INTERNET is the world’s largest WAN. WAN may be publicly accessible, like the internet, or may be privately owned.

Navigating the Web

The Web is known as a client-serversystem. Your computer is the client;the remote computers that storeelectronic files are the servers. To visitthe website, enter the address or URLof the website in your web browser.Browser requests the web page fromthe web server that hosts therequested site. The server sends thedata over the Internet to yourcomputer. Your web browserinterprets the data, displaying it onyour computer screen.

Page 8: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Cont…………….

The "glue" that holds the Web together is calledhypertext and hyperlinks. This feature allowselectronic files on the Web to be linked so you can jumpeasily between them. On the Web, you navigate throughpages of information--commonly known as browsing orsurfing--based on what interests you at that particularmoment.Web pages are written in a computer language calledHypertext Markup Language or HTML.

Brief History of the Internet

1968 - DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) contracts with BBN (Bolt, Beranek & Newman) to create ARPAnet

1970 - First five nodes: UCLA Stanford UC Santa Barbara U of Utah, and BBN

1974 - TCP specification by Vint Cerf

1984 – On January 1, the Internet with its 1000 hosts converts en masse to using TCP/IP for its messaging

Page 16: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Web site

A Web site is a related collection of World Wide Web (WWW) files that includes a beginning file called a home page. A company or an individual tells you how to get to their Web site by giving you the address of their home page. From the home page, you can get to all the other pages on their site. For example, the Web site for IBM has the home page address of http://www.ibm.com. (The home page address actually includes a specific file name like index.html

Page 17: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Web Browsers

A web browser is the software program you use to access the World Wide Web, the graphical portion of the Internet. The first browser, called NCSA Mosaic, was developed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications in the early 1990s. The easy-to-use point-and-click interface helped popularize the Web. Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator are the two most popular ones.

Page 18: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

E-Mail

A message containing text, graphics, video and/or audio transmitted electronically from one computer user to another computer user. The mail could be sent between two people using the same computer or between two people on different sides of the world.Advantages of E-MailSpeedBecause e-mail is based around computer networks, it is fast - much faster than standard mail (otherwise known as snail mail). An e-mail message that you send to someone in Finland or Brazil could take only a few seconds to reach them.

Page 19: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Cont……………

CostDepending on how you have obtained your Internet access, email is either free or very cheap, much cheaper than the 45 cents it takes to send a standard letter within Australia.

FlexibilityWith the new MIME e-mail system being used today, youaren’t limited to text in your e-mail messages. You can Include pictures, sound files, movies, data files from your favorite spreadsheet program, etc.

Page 20: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Domain Names

Every computer that hosts data on the Internet has a unique numerical address. For example, the numerical address for the White House is 198.137.240.100. But since few people want to remember long strings of numbers, the Domain Name System (DNS) was invented. DNS, a critical part of the Internet's technical infrastructure, correlates a numerical address to a word. To access the White House website, you could type its number into the address box of your web browser. But most people prefer to use www.whitehouse.gov." In this case, the domain name is whitehouse.gov.

Page 21: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

The Structure of a Domain Name

A domain name has two or more parts separated by dots and consists of some form of an organization's name and a three letter or more suffix. For example, the domain name for IBM is "ibm.com"; The domain name suffix is known as a generic top-level domain. Top-level domain describes organization

.COM -Commercial sites .EDU -U.S. Colleges .NET -Network providers .ORG -Non-profit, miscellaneous groups .GOV -U.S. government .MIL -U.S. military .INT -International organisations

Country Codes .IE - Ireland .IN - India

Page 22: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Web Addresses

World Wide Web is a network ofelectronic files stored on millionsof computers all around the world.Hypertext links these resourcestogether. Uniform ResourceLocators or URLs are theaddresses used to locate the files.Every URL is unique and identifiesone specific file.example:http://www.du.ac.inThe home page of Delhi University.

Information Transfer

o Packeto Grouping of data for transmission on a networko Large messages are split into a series of packets for

transmissiono Protocol

o A rule governing how communication should be conductedo Internet Protocol

o Set of rules used to pass packetso Open Systems Interconnection (OSI)

o A layered approach to networkingo Each layer handles a different portion of the communication

process

Page 24: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Internet Protocol (IP)

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer to another on the Internet. Each computer (known as a host) on the Internet has at least one IP address that uniquely identifies it from all other computers on the Internet. When you send or receive data (for example, an e-mail note or a Web page), the message gets divided into little chunks called packets. Each of these packets contains both the sender's Internet address and the receiver's address. Any packet is sent first to a gateway computer that understands a small part of the Internet. The gateway computer reads the destination address and forwards the packet to an adjacent gateway that in turn reads the destination address and so forth across the Internet until one gateway recognizes the packet as belonging to a computer within its immediate neighborhood or domain. That gateway then forwards the packet directly to the computer whose address is specified.

TCP/IP

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Breaks the higher level stream into IP

datagrams Verifies that all packets arrive at their

destination Resends anything that gets lost TCP packets might take different routes Reassembles the data in correct order at

receiver

TCP/IP

Page 28: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

IP ADDRESS

When you are looking for specific information on a specific host computer, each host is identified by a host number( called an IP address). To transmit a message, a source host (sender) need to know only the official IP address of the destination host, regardless of location.

The ex. Of IP address is

192.160.1.143

Page 29: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Gateway

A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network. On the Internet, a node or stopping point can be either a gateway node or a host (end-point) node. Both the computers of Internet users and the computers that serve pages to users are host nodes. The computers that control traffic within your company's network or at your local Internet service provider (ISP) are gateway nodes. In the network for an enterprise, a computer server acting as a gateway node is often also acting as a proxy server and a firewall server. A gateway is often associated with both a router, which knows where to direct a given packet of data that arrives at the gateway, and a switch, which furnishes the actual path in and out of the gateway for a given packet

Page 30: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Search Engines

To search the Internet you use what are called Internet search engines.

These are easily accessed via your Internet browser (i.e. Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator/Communicator).

Within the search engine you enter a word or phrase and it will retrieve documents from the Internet based on the information you typed in.

Page 31: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Web portal

Commonly referred to as simply a portal, a Web site or service that offers a broad array of resources and services, such as e-mail, forums, search engines, and on-line shopping malls. The first Web portals were online services, such as AOL, that provided access to the Web, but by now most of the traditional search engines have transformed themselves into Web portals to attract and keep a larger audience.

Page 32: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Cont……

Portal is a term, generally synonymous with gateway, for a World Wide Web site that is or proposes to be a major starting site for users when they get connected to the Web or that users tend to visit as an anchor site. There are general portals and specialized or niche portals. Some major general portals include Yahoo, Excite, Netscape, Lycos, CNET, Microsoft Network, and America Online's AOL.com.

Page 33: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Stability & Reliability of the Web

No one single agency or company owns the internet. Each company on the internet owns its own network. The links between these company and the internet are owned by telephone companies and ISPs.

The Organization that coordinates internet function is the internet society. Its works with ISPs by providing information to prospective users.

Its stability is as good as that of the internet, which as fairly good so far.

Reliability depends primarily on the quality of service providers equipment.

Providing a superior customer services and support resourceMost web sites generate customer feedback in the way of comments, suggestions and complaints. The challenges for online merchant is to have adequate staff to address this feedback in a timely fashion.A common support resource is the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) list. A FAQ eliminates having staff answer the same question over and over again. If a new question comes up, the answer is added to the list.

Efficiency and unequaled cost effectivenessFor many products and services , the web is the only cost-effective sale method available. A commercial web site can also provides address, directions, online order tracking, and the like, reducing phone calls, phone interruption, and staff time.

Supporting managerial function, spreading ideas, ease of technical supportThe internet sends business information through a company network and across networks around the globe. Email is a convenient tool for manager to reach employees, bosses, customer, and suppliers quickly.

Page 36: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Utility and Role of Internet

There are many advantages to using the Internet such as:

Email.Email is now an essential communication tools inbusiness. It is also excellent for keeping in touch withfamily and friends. The advantages to email is that it is free

( no charge per use) when compared to telephone, fax and postal services.

Use the Internet to Help Market Your Business

The Internet is an excellent tool to aid in your marketing efforts. The average North American consumer spends an average of 14 hours online each week (Jupiter Research), many often spending more time online than watching television. Your business' website needs to obtain, retain, and provide information and services to your future, current, and past clients/customers in order to succeed in the growing online world. on order to bring people to your website you need a site that is properly and effectively designed and optimized so that users first find your website and then stay on your website to either gain information, purchase a product/service, or develop a business-consumer relationship with you. Search Engine Optimization is an effective marketing application for any business or website.Once you have a customer base, you can use the Internet to help retain it and maintain it. You should provide new information or specials on your website, send out an email newsletter to inform and market to your client base, or provide customer support through Internet channels (website, email, faq, help center etc.).

Limitations

SecuritySecurity continues to be a problem for online businesses. For millions of potential cyber customers ,the fear of credit card theft is a real one. Consumer have to be feel confident about the integrity of the process before they commit to the purchase.

System and data integrityThere is always a problem with E-commerce, bcoz a number of viruses on net that causes unnecessary delays, file backups, storage problems.

System ScalabilityIf a company expects 2 million customer and 6 million customer show up, website performance is bound to experience degradation, slowdown, and eventually loss of customers. To keep this problem from happing, a website must be scalable, or upgradeable on a regular basis.

Fulfillment problemTales of shipping delay, merchandise mix-ups, and website crashing under pressure continue to be a problem. Customer confidence in e-commerce ability to deliver during heavy shopping seasons continues to be a headache,

Customer search is not efficient or cost effectiveIn E-commerce the sellers and buyers share information and trades without intermediaries. How a closer look indicates that new types of intermediaries are essential to e-commerce. They include that guarantee of product quality, mediators for bargaining. All these intermediaries add to transaction costs.

Page 43: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Strategy in E-Commerce

The road-map for a successful e-commerce business need identifying the critical success factor and developing a realistic strategy for the business. They are-

1. A sound strategy that has the full support of top management.

2. A clear goal of long term customer relationships.3. Making full use of the internet and related

technologies.4. A scalable and integrated business process and

infrastructure.

Page 44: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

Integrating E-Commerce

E-commerce is to integrate the entire transaction life cycle, from the time the consumer purchases the product on the website to the time the product actually received.

Business to Consumer (internet)The focus of e-commerce application is on the consumer’s use of a merchant’s website. Customer anywhere can browse and order goods or services online anytime.

Business to Business (internet & extranet) The real power of e-commerce lies not in the direct sale of product to customer, but in the

integration of relationship among merchants and suppliers. B2B e-commerce is industrial marketing: among the processes it handles the fulfillment and procurement. As soon as an online purchase is entered and payment is approved through a credit card clearance procedure, customer received a message “Thanks you for your order and the amount of $xxx charged from yr credit card. The moment the message is displayed on customer screen , an electronic order is sent to the vender to fill the order & ship it to directly to customer.An EXTRANET is shared internet deploying e-commerce within the larger community of an organization, including its venders, contractors, suppliers and key customers.

Business within Business (intranet)Intranet play a role as a corporate and product information center and is strictly restricted a “within company” type of information exchange. This networked environment is restricted to internal employees and customers, with firewalls to keep out non-employees. Emails replace paper for communication of message, order acknowledgment and approvals, and forms of correspondence within the firm.

E- Commerce In Action

Page 47: GSBA - IT Orientation Program by Prof. Amit Chandra

How e-Commerce Works

The consumer first moves through the internet to the merchant’s website. At the web site, the consumer is briefly given an introduction to the product or services the merchant offers. It is at this point that the consumer makes the decision to visit the web store by clicking on a link or button located on the web page (e.g., Buy Now, Shop Online, or an image of a shopping cart button are common entry points into a web store). After choosing to visit the web store, the consumer is typically connected to an online transaction server located somewhere else on the internet which runs software commonly referred to as a shopping cart application. The shopping cart application has been setup by the merchant to display all products and services offered, as well as calculate pricing, taxes,shipping charges, etc.

From there, the consumer decides that he wants to purchase something, so he enters all pertinent credit card information and a sales order is produced. Depending on the ecommerce implementation, the sales order can now take two totally different paths for confirming to the consumer that the order is officially placed.
