Transnational
a commercial enterprise that operates substantial facilities, does business in more than one
country and does not consider any particular country its national home.
Multinational
an organization that owns or controls production of goods or services in one or more
countries other than their home country.
Database Management System (DBMS)
Allows multiple departments to access, analyze, and modify data that is stored in one
central location.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
Helps establish feasibility.
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
service provider provides server space, the server, virtualization, operating system,
database, and development environment in a platform that can be used for application
development. An example would be Amazon Web Services.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
A service provider provides a cloud fabric, or pooled services, including server space,
servers, storage, and all other aspects of the computing platform, with the exception of the
operating system and applications, which the client organization would install and manage.
Analytics as a Service (AaaS)
A cloud software service
Software as a Service (SaaS)
,Software licensed and hosted on centralized or distributed servers that belong to a service
provider. Users access this software using a connection to the Internet and a web browser.
Agile software development methodology
an operational method by which software developers iteratively gather requirements, plan,
design, develop, test, and implement software.
Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL)
common set of best practices widely used by businesses to give guidance to companies on
how to use IT as a tool for implementing change
Pseudocode
an informal high-level description of the operating principle of a computer program or
other algorithm. Used for human reading, rather than machine reading, and it can be used
to translate into any programming language.
Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN)
The entire interconnected voice telephone network around the world. It is switched based.
Protocols
used to ensure the quality and accuracy of the transmission, and that the transmission is
understood by the receiving device.
Bridge
a device that connects and passes packets between two network segments that use the
same communications protocol; can be used to boost Wi-Fi strength in areas of low signal
quality.
router
used to connect multiple networks together and forward data packets between those
separate networks to the destination host.
Core Router
A more powerful router that is used to optimize high volume transmissions; aggregate data
from business and transmit the data directly to the Internet backbone.
, COBOL
The first computer language; developed in the 1950s; still used today.
Fourth generation computer languages (4GL)
software tools that help reduce the amount of procedural knowledge that is needed about
how computers operate and lets end users create programs as needed; SQL is a 4GL.
Structured Query Language (SQL)
A computing language that is used with relational databases.
Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM)
The main memory of a computer system; requires constant refreshing.
Static Random-Access Memory (SRAM)
Retains memory for as long as power is being supplied; does not need to be constantly
refreshed; used to access the most frequently used data, as it is faster.
Horizontal Application
Software that provides solutions based upon the common needs of many businesses.
Vertical Application
Software that designed for a specific business.
Software
Provides instructions to computers to perform tasks.
Low-Level Programming Language
Basic programming languages that used machine language instruction; they are specific to
the hardware and lack portability.
mesh network
network topology in which each node relays data for the network
TCP/IP
