Describe a real or hypothetical information technology

Question

Group project requires each team to describe a real or hypothetical information technology project and to develop an integrated project plan that would be used to manage this project throughout its life cycle. The group project requires students to apply the project planning and related project management tools and techniques covered in this course.

The IT project you choose should not be trivial;that is, it should be a project that would require the use of multiple people and involve one or more complete phases of a life cycle as described in your textbooks for this course. In practice, the scope and development of a project is usually the result of a group teamwork effort as reflected in the Project Plan.

proposed structure:

1. The project involves the constructions of a brand new data center to become a cloud computing service provider for Paas. This would entail the following...
   1. Determine a suitable location (build, buy, or lease?)
   2. Identify the amount of Power, Space, and Cooling required
      1. Determine the amount of floor space and type of floor (raised?)
      2. What tier data center?
      3. What mechanical components will be used (i.e. chillers, UPS's, PDU's, fire suppression systems, etc).
      4. What type of racks will be used?
      5. How many mW are required to operate all components with room to grow? How green will the data center?
      6. Overhead or underfloor power?
      7. Cable tray locations?
   3. What regulations and codes must be met to green light the building
   4. What will be the cost of personnel in addition to constructions/leasing?
   5. What software will be needed?
   6. What type of monitoring will be required for mechanical and IT equipment?
   7. What processes will be put in place for Configuration management for installing, upgrading, decommissioning equipment?

GA1 Group Assignment #1: Project Proposal. Prepare a term project proposal,which includes:

a) introduction,

b) statement of need,

c) project definition, and

d) high level approach to developing the plan.(ME, my part)

The proposal should be in the form of a single, comprehensive, professional, business like report. All project proposals should be submitted in the assignment area of the designated group leader.

Length is approximately 5 single-spaced pages. It should clearly demonstrate that your team has thought through your project and is working well as a project group.

My part(ME) at least two pages
