Upgrading a Computer A department store plans to upgrade its IT infrastructure to support a new order-processing application with rich features. The store currently uses eight stand-alone computers when customers check out. The specifications of these computers are: - Quad-core processors - Minimum of one terabyte hard drives - Minimum of 5 GB RAM - Windows XP, Linux, or Mac OSX The management of the store wants to upgrade four of the computers and use them to process client orders. The initial study done by the management reveals that the computers will perform the following tasks: - Run an order-processing application that requires a multiprocessing operating system. The application will take orders from customers over the Internet, process the orders, and create invoices. - Communicate with customers using email to resolve customer queries. - Store customer data on the local computer. The store will use this data to promote new products. The department store needs you to upgrade the four computers. Find the necessary equipment from online vendors to upgrade the computers and create a report as a 5- to 7-page MS Word document. Your report will include a listing of what features need to be upgraded or added and your justification, an estimated cost report for the upgrades, as well as a list of hardware/software needed. These can include external peripheral devices. Make sure to include the list of vendors that you used as references and that your report reflects due diligence in addressing the assignment statement. It is very important to cite your work using APA.

00:01 Hello students, as the title we mentioned is the upgrading it infrastructure for order processing application.
00:10 Upgrading, upgrading it infrastructure, infrastructure for the order processing application, for the order processing application.
00:32 Where the department storage upgrades its introduction as the introduction.
00:42 In introduction, provide an overview of the department stores need for upgrading its own it infrastructure, explain the importance of the upgrading to the support the new order processing application and its rich feature, mention the scope and the objectives of the report.
01:00 Next, after that move to the current computer specification, current computer specification.
01:14 As describe the current, current specification of the 8 stand alone computers used by the department store for the computer checkout, highlight the limitation and inadequate of the current setup in the meeting the requirements of the new order processing applications.
01:36 Next comes is the requirement for the upgraded computers, requirement requirements for the upgraded computers, for the upgraded computers, computers.
01:55 As list the necessary features that needs to be upgraded or added to the 4 computers for order processing, email communication and the customer data storage, justify the need for each upgrade based on the task the computer will perform.
02:11 The next move the hardware upgrade, hardware upgrade.
02:19 As in the hardware upgrades we move for the processor, we discuss about the processor specify the required, require the core processor, core processor with the recommended clock speed and the cache with the hard disk, with the hard disk, hard drivers we can say, hard drivers recommended the minimum 1 terabytes of the hard driver with the best storage technology for the reliability and the performance.
02:55 The next come is the ram that is that suggest the minimum 5 gb of ram for efficient multitasking and smooth operation of an application.
03:05 The next is the graphical graphics card, graphics card where if the required for the graphic intensive task recommended a suitable graphic card after that the network interface card, network interface, interface cards.
03:30 So for smooth internet communication suggest the high speed of the network cards.
03:35 After the software, after the hardware we move towards the software upgrades.
03:42 The software upgrades includes the os operating system, operating system compare and evaluate the windows, linux and the macintosh to determine the best multiprocessing operating system for the application...
