 You have been asked for a cloud-based/IoT solution to replace a traditional client-server configuration. You may download the opensource version of MS Visio called Dia to create the network diagram or use the drawing features available in any Office Suite. Just make sure to label your components. The current technologies are as follows:

•  A database server (Microsoft SQL)
•  SplendidCRM running on a server (See http://www.splendidcrm.com/ )
•  A Microsoft Exchange Server (For email)
• A Windows Server 2012 R2 running Web Server (IIS)

Your deliverables are:

• An assessment of the current configurations (Pros and Cons)
• Potential replacement technologies
• Proposed Network Diagram incorporating Cloud and IoT technologies (Do not neglect security measures such as firewalls, IDT, IDS, honeypots, DMZ, or encryption)
• A narration explaining your network diagram

Your well-written paper should meet the following requirements:

• Four to five pages in length, not including the title and reference pages.
• Label each section clearly.
• Include two external references in addition to the textbook. The Saudi Digital Library is a good source for these references.

Week 6 Class Discussion topic comes from —

Chapter Six “Targeting Attractive Market Segments”

Chapter Seven “Differentiation and Brand Positioning”

This class expects you to contribute two times:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

When entrepreneurs and companies use tools to work on market segmentation and target marketing, they essentially seek answers to the following questions raised in Chapter Six:

• Why would market segmentation and target marketing make sense?
• Why not sell the same products or services to everyone?
• How can potentially attractive market segments be identified and defined?
• How can segments be prioritized so that the most attractive ones are pursued?

So is this class.

We will undertake a similar process through your contribution one — answer one question only out of six questions below —

Question #1 How to define market segmentations (what are three steps used in the market segmentation process)?

Question #2 What is the Five-Step Process technique used by marketers to choose attractive market segments?

Question #3 One of the three common targeting strategies is “niche-market strategy”.  Explain this strategy and provide at least two examples.

Question #4 One of the three common targeting strategies is “mass-market strategy”.  Explain this strategy and provide at least two examples.

Question #5 One of the three common targeting strategies is “growth-market strategy”.  Explain this strategy and provide at least examples.

Question #6 What is the relationship between market segmentation, target marketing, and product positioning? What damage will be done to a company’s target marketing and positioning efforts if markets are incorrectly or not effectively or insightfully segmented?

.

You do not need to answer all six (6) questions above:

Question 1 needs student X1 to answer it (Question 1 must be listed first)

Question 2 needs student X2 to answer it (Question 2 must be listed first)

Question 3 needs student X3 to answer it (Question 3 must be listed first)

Question 4 needs student X4 to answer it (Question 4 must be listed first)

Question 5 needs student X5 to answer it (Question 5 must be listed first)

Question 6 needs student X6 to answer it (Question 6 must be listed first)

You will earn maximum 2 points from your completed contribution one, if —

• your answer does not repeat to a same question that has already been answered by a classmate who did his/her work before you get here.
• if you do not totally agree with a classmate’s contribution one, or you think there are some aspects missed out by that classmate, you could explain why you disagree or why some other aspects should be included in your contribution two.  
• your answer is relevant to the question you selected to address.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Your contribution two — comment on one of your classmates’ posting about his/her contribution one.

You will earn maximum 2 points from your completed contribution two, if —

 Unit VII ScholarlyActivity Answer the following questions thoroughly, and submit in a document. Each answer must be at least 150 words in length. Cite your sources. 1. Describe seven database models, and give examples of each type. 2. Provide five examples of data you would store in a real, integer, text, logical, date, memo, and BLOB data field. 3. Using a real-world entity like a recipe file or collection of some sort that can be stored in a database, divide this information into fields and record types. Explain the steps you need to take to normalize the data. 4. Explain in your own words the differences between sorting and indexing. 5. Imagine that you must access a library card catalog using SQL. Write an SQL query that you would use to search for any books by J. J. Parsons in a table called Books, where author’s names are stored in a field called Title. 6. Explain the extent to which encryption, user privileges, and audits can secure a database.
