6  Read the following case study thoroughly and answer the following questions:
Laxmi bank is one of the largest private sector banks of India. It has an extensive network
of more than 200 branches. It offers banking services to retail as well as corporate clients.
The bank faced a challenge in integrating multi-pronged database management system into
a  centralized  system.  The  IT  department  of  the  bank  also  realized  that  the  computing
capabilities  of  its  PCs  and  servers  were  not  proportionately  distributed  among  all  its
branches. Each branch had its database management system stored in a traditional way on
the disk. The total cost of operating and maintaining the current IT infrastructure was very
high  and  the  fundamental  shortcomings  added  to  the  costs.  Moreover,  there  were  also
recurrent  problems  due  to  the  malfunctioning  of  the  currently  operational  database
management system. Therefore, the bank’s top management decided to fix the problem and
operationalise a robust database management system. The bank hired an external database
technology consulting firm called AKPY Info systems Limited.
AKPY  divided  the  entire  IT  infrastructure  of  the  bank  around  two  verticals.  The  retail
banking vertical and the corporate banking vertical. All the individual database servers from
the individual branches were removed. The entire database system was made v irtual such
that the managers and the staff can access only the required information (related to retail
banking or corporate banking) from the respective centralised data centers. There were only
two  such  centralised  data  centers  (one  for  retail  banking  and  another  for  corporate
banking)  that  were  managed  centrally.  Staff  and  managers  could  access  the  information
through their PCs and laptops. Centralised database management system complemented the
security  system  by  bringing  in  authentication  through  a  unified  ID  management  server.
Managers  and  officers  of  the  bank  were  able  to  process  half  a  million  transactions  per
month in real time after the new implementation. There were significant savings in the cost
and  also  in  the  consumption  of  power.  Now  there  were  no  problems  with  regard  to
imbalances in the load across various network servers. Due to centralised data management,
top management could keep an eye on the functioning of various branches. Hence the cases
of fraud and cheating reduced considerably. The bank managers could also process the loan
applications in reduced time since the customer’s previous records could be accessed at the
click of the button and approval from the higher authorities could be obtained in real time.
Moreover the new system also brought in many applications that helped local managers in
the decision making process.
a.  List the uses of centralized data management
b.  What  steps  Laxmi  bank  need  to  take  if  it  were  to  change  its  centralised  database
system to a distributed database system in future?
A  a.  Listing  the  uses  from  the  from  the  case

b.  Explaining  about  data  fragmentation,

Is  it  possible  to  replicate  the  centralised
database  management  model  of  the  bank
in a manufacturing concern? Give reasons.

X7X365  storage  capacity,  storage  management  and  internet  service  to  the  customers.  It
now  needs  a  solution  that  will  eliminate  downtime.  Downtime  is  nothing  but  the  time
during which a computer or computer system is down, or inoperative due to hardware or
software failure. We also need the flexibility in quick response to  both the development in
customer base and additional capacity and service demands of the customers.
ABC company took the help of network storage infrastructure software provider to achieve
their goals by providing support for end to end redundancy and bondless scalability.
By  creating  a  scalable  storage  network  with  the  ability  to  confidentially  deliver  the
24X7X365  reliability,  and  speed  that  outsourcing  customers  demand,  it  has  enabled  the
ISP/SSP to attract and retain customers and substantially build  its business. As the same
time, the solution has effectively lowered ABC company’s total cost of ownership for its
entire  storage  solution:  the  IP  Stor/CNP  union  has  enabled  a  painless,  flexible  cost
effective, scalable solution. The complementary IP Stor/CNT solution has allowed to its
customers easily and cost- effectively.
