Deliverables Resulting from These Activities


  1. Technical infrastructure assessment report

    This report should itemize the scalability and limitations of the hardware, middleware, DBMS, and tool platform and should cover the following items:

    - Servers

    - Client workstations

    - Operating systems

    - Middleware ( especially DBMS gateways)

    - Custom interfaces

    - Network components and bandwidth

    - DBMS functionality and utilities (backup and recovery, performance monitoring)

    - Development tools such as computer aided software engineering (CASE) and ETL tools

    - Access and analysis tools such as OLAP tools and report writers

    - Meta data repository

    Include a gap analysis section and provide recommendations for upgrading the platform. Incorporate the product evaluation and selection results, listing the weighted requirements and the product features you evaluated. The product and vendor evaluation and selection process is described in more detail in Step 10, Meta Data Repository Design.

  2. Installation of selected products

    If you identified new products to purchase, write a request for proposal (RFP) or a request for information (RFI) and send it to the vendors on the short list. After selecting a product, order, install, and test it.
