1 Managing Information Technology 6 th Edition CHAPTER 6 ENTERPRISE SYSTEMS Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 1
2 APPLICATION AREAS Interorganizational systems Systems that span organizational boundaries e Business applications B2C link businesses with their end consumers B2B link businesses with other business customers or suppliers Electronic data interchange (EDI) systems Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 2
3 APPLICATION AREAS Intraorganizational systems Enterprise Systems Systems that support all or most of the organization Managerial Support Systems Systems that support a specific manager or group of managers Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3
4 APPLICATION AREAS Intraorganizational systems (cont d) Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 4
5 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Batch processing A group (or batch) of transactions are accumulated, then processed all at one time Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 5
6 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Batch processing (cont d) In the early days of computers, all processes were batched Major problem is the time delay before the master file is updated Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 6
7 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Online processing Each transaction is entered directly into computer when it occurs Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 7
8 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Batch processing vs. Online processing Batch Processing Significant delay before master file is updated (usually 1 day) Much less expensive to operate Some applications naturally suited for batch processing (e.g., payroll) Online Processing Master file updated within a fraction of a second Much more expensive to operate Some applications need to be processed in real time Note: given the tradeoffs, hybrid systems that combine online dataentrywithbatchprocessing arevery common Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 8
9 Online processing CRITICAL CONCEPTS Interactive System A fully implemented online system where user interacts directly with the computer In line System Provides for online data entry, but processing of transactions is deferred for batch processing Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 9
10 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Functional information systems Information systems that support one of an organization s primary business functions Example Business Functions and Subsystems Marketing Accounting Personnel Personnel Engineering Production Planning Production Scheduling Sales Forecasting Etc. Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 10
11 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Vertically integrated information systems Serve more than one vertical level in an organization or industry Example Sales System Top Management Long-term trend analysis Middle Management Weekly ydaaa data analysis ayssto track slow-moving items and productive salespeople Produce invoices Capture initial sales data Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 11
12 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Distributed systems Refers to mode of delivery rather than traditional class of applications Processing power is distributed to multiple sites, which are then tied together via telecommunications lines Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 12
13 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Client/server systems A type of distributed system where processing power is distributed between a central server computer and a number of client computers (usually PCs) Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 13
14 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Client/server systems (cont d) Client Middleware Server Handles user interface Accesses distributed services through a network Software to support clients and server interaction ti Three categories: Server operating systems Transport stack software Service-specific software Runs on bigger machine Handles data storage for applications Databases Web pages Groupware Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 14
15 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Client/server systems (cont d) Two tier system Three tier system Original client/server Became popular in systems the mid 1990 s Client Server Client Application Server Database Server Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 15
16 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Client/server systems Two models: Fat client/thin server: most processing done on the client Thin client/fat server: most processing done on the server In general Web and groupware servers are fat servers Database servers are thin servers Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 16
17 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Service oriented architecture (SOA) Application architecture based on a collection of functions, or services, where these services can communicate (or be connected) with one another Advantages: Once a service is created, it can be used over and over again Services can be created internally or obtained externally Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 17
18 CRITICAL CONCEPTS Web services A particular collection of technologies built around the XML standard of communicating XML is used to tag the data Web Services Description Language (WSDL) describes the services available Other protocols used in web services include: Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) lists the services available SOAP (originally Simple Object Access Protocol, but now just the initials) transfers the data Copyright 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.
