ISA 235 outline (ch. 5-7)
*Evolution of the MIS Infrastructure
(You should be able to describe how firms which have traditionally relied on
onsite hardware, are now incorporating cloud services, and how the increase
in the use of cloud services can help establish a sustainable infrastructure
now and in the future. ) - correct answer ✔MIS infrastructure includes the
plans for how a firm will build, deploy, use, and share its data, processes, and
MIS assets. MIS Infrastructure can be listed in three categories: Information
(Supports Operations), Agile (Supports Change), and Sustainable MIS
Infrastructure (Supports Sustainability).


Information MIS includes Backup, Recovery, Disaster Recovery, and
Business Continuity Planning. The characteristics of Agile MIS are
accessibility, availability, maintainability, portability, reliability, scalability, and
usability. Combining all three of these categories is becoming more common,
and helping all areas of business.


*Preparedness
(You should be able to describe the importance of and methods a firm can
use to verify that it is ready to respond to an emergency in an organized,
timely, and effective manner.) - correct answer ✔Simple Answer:Backup and
Recovery, Disaster Recovery, Business Continuity Planning


For a firm to be ready to respond to an emergency in an organized, timely,
and effective manner, they can use the three areas of support provided by
Information Infrastructure: Backup and Recovery, Disaster Recovery, and
Business Continuity Planning. They need to be able to have their information
backed up and be able to restart operations soon, as well as recovering
information in the event of a huge disaster, like a fire or flood (which could
also destroy office, hence the need for Business Continuity Planning).

, *The Cloud
(You should be able to describe how the Cloud enables individuals or
businesses to pay only for the services they need, when they need them and
where. Further, how the move to the Cloud has reduced barriers to entry and
leveled the playing field in the ability to leverage strategic innovation.) - correct
answer ✔Cloud Computing stores, manages, and processes data and
applications over the Internet rather than on a personal computer server.
Cloud Computing allows for companies to only purchase the space and
services they need, rather than having to buy their own equipment, and not
using it to the full potential or storage. Also, there are a number of benefits to
cloud computing, including the following: On- Demand Self-Service (Users
can increase storage and processing power as needed), Broad Network


Access (All devices can access data and applications), Multi-Tenancy
(Customers share pooled computing resources), Rapid Elasticity (Storage,
network bandwidth, and computing capacity can be increased or decreased
immediately, allowing for optimal scalability), and Measured Service (Clients
can monitor and measure transactions and use of resources).


*Sustainable Infrastructure
(You should be able to identify and describe ways that a company can grow in
terms of computing resources while simultaneously becoming less dependent
on hardware such as through the use of grid computing, cloud computing and
virtualization.) - correct answer ✔Simple answer:Grid Computing,
Virtualization, Cloud Computing.


The three key components of Sustainable MIS Infrastructure are Grid
Computing, Virtualization, and Cloud Computing. A company can grow in
terms of computing resources while simultaneously becoming less dependent
on hardware through these three components. By utilizing Cloud computing
and creating data centers, companies can improve the data center
sustainability by reducing energy consumption (Carbon Emissions), store
greater amounts of information in less space (Floor Space), and have
resources that are clean, inexpensive, and available (Geographic Location).
