The task:

You will write an informative report in the form of a memo for the mayor. This is a basic report (informal in complexity, formal in tone), and its purpose is informative, not analytical (so discussion and analysis only, no recommendations). You can share complete information with the mayor.

Your report will include:

· a brief background on the client and the history of your professional relationship

· a model problem statement

· a detailed discussion/analysis on how the client can update his home in a cost-effective, environmentally friendly way while maintaining the home’s structural/architectural integrity

· a description on the next step in the consultation process

· a sincere statement of goodwill, thanking the mayor for her interest

You are only including information that relates to….

· From the first e-Activity, discuss the key governance factors that organizations must instill before, during, and after a cloud migration.

· From the second e-Activity, select a company that was found to have its security compromised. Provide one example where the cloud provider was or could have been found liable based on the laws and requirements that you researched.

Week8 Discussion2

“Evaluating the Cloud” Please respond to the following:

· Imagine that you are the CIO of an organization that has 50 servers across three campuses and a distributed mobile sales workforce of 200 employees and 500 contractors. Determine the economic benefits, in financial terms, of migrating to a cloud-based solution.

1. A complete citation goes before the annotation (the citation is the same as on a Works Cited page).

2. Follow guidelines provided on handout when composing annotated citations. Include a quotation for each annotation.

3. Place entries in alphabetical order by author’s last name. If no author, then use title of work.

Research should be no older than 10 years (exception: class reading material may be older).

Requirements:

· 1 peer reviewed scholarly articles

· 1 popular publication (e.g. magazine or newspaper article)

· 1 web article

· any source you wish

You certainly may use more than 4 sources for your Research Project, but no more than 8.

***Information on how to cite different sources can be found online at Owl Purdue.***

Available online at: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/index.html (Links to an external site.).

However, you will need to use other sources for some additional information, as well as maps, pictures, and other images that are also expected to be included.  Be aware that you will need to provide a proper bibliographic citation for all sources (including the World Factbook) that you used for the assignment on a final “Sources” slide—this includes the sources of maps and pictures, etc.—so be sure to keep track of these as you complete the assignment.

As with the previous assignments, you will be expected to put all of the information requested for this assignment in a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation document.  Once again, you must let the instructor know IN ADVANCE if you have any problems with being able to use this software.

In “PG&E and Southern California Edison have turned off power to minimize fires. It hasn’t worked. What will?”, an article discussing the catastrophic effects of wildfires and techniques being implemented to limit the wildfires, Jorge L.Ortiz, a staff writer for the “USA Today”, explains that the reasoning behind blackouts may not be as beneficial as we believe it to be.

In spite of the controversy, power outages have lowered the number of wildfires in the presence of high winds, for example….
