Discuss ways in which organizations can make their data centers “green”.

Prompt 1 “Data Warehouse Architecture” (2-3 pages): Explain the major components of a data warehouse architecture, including the various forms of data transformations needed to prepare data for a data warehouse. Also, describe in your own words current key trends in data warehousing.

Prompt 2 “Big Data” (2-3 pages): Describe your understanding of big data and give an example of how you’ve seen big data used either personally or professionally. In your view, what demands is big data placing on organizations and data management technology?

Prompt 3 “Green Computing” (2-3 pages): One of our topics in Chapter 13 surrounds IT Green Computing. The need for green computing is becoming more obvious considering the amount of power needed to drive our computers, servers, routers, switches, and data centers. Discuss ways in which organizations can make their data centers “green”. In your discussion, find an example of an organization that has already implemented IT green computing strategies successfully.

Describe how OSI layers can affect a network’s design and network in general.

1. Does the OSI model conform to the TCP/IP protocols, or vice versa? Is there another model that works better in a corporate environment? In other environments? Explain your answers in detail and provide examples to support your perspective. (No Rubic is required).

2. Describe how OSI layers can affect a network’s design and network in general. Provide an example.

3. Using resources from this week’s readings and those available on the Internet, answer the following questions in a 500- to 1,000-word paper:

a) Describe how OSI model layers can effect a network’s design and networking in general.

b) There are two different types of switching technologies available in today’s market. One lives on one layer, while the other resides in a different layer of the OSI model. Locate these switching technologies, describe the differences in functionality, and relate those differences to the functions inherent within the OSI model. Your OSI model annotation document from Week 1 will be valuable.

c) How can the OSI model be useful during troubleshooting processes?

Note: You must use at least one credible reference in your paper.
