Reading Notes: several key components of the informatization strategy

The informatization strategy should ultimately form an overall information planning and strategic deployment. The final strategy consists of three most important components: information System architecture strategy, information infrastructure strategy, information resource integration strategy, and selection of major information systems.

I. Information system architecture strategy

Information System ArchitectureIt refers to the selection of applications, technologies and data, the definition of investment portfolios, and the configuration of hardware, software and communication.

Information System architecture strategyIs the overall arrangement of the information system architecture.

2. informatization infrastructure strategy

In essence, informatization infrastructure is the key foundation for ensuring business continuity. Its overall availability directly determines the effectiveness of Informatization applications.

Information InfrastructureIt refers to the basic information technology environment in which the information system worker runs, including the network, storage, server, PC terminal, and data center (the data center in the narrow sense here, including data center itself, data center wiring, UPS, data center air conditioners, data center security, etc.), as well as basic software for managing and supporting system operation.

Informatization infrastructure strategyIt is to rationally plan and arrange information infrastructure to provide a high-availability technical environment for the good operation of information systems, it enables reliable operation and effective cooperation of various business applications and data on the infrastructure.

The informatization infrastructure strategy mainly includes the following aspects.

1. Data center strategy

2. Strategic Network Planning (the overall network topology, reasonable network protocols, and comprehensive grasp of the capacity equipment, bandwidth, and other data of the network system)

3. Storage Strategic Planning (determining storage capacity, classifying data, determining storage architecture, taking into account peripheral device resources, and taking into account air crash backup)

4. computing capability Planning

5. Information Security Strategy (utilization of information security technology and design of Information Security Management System)

6. System Management Planning

Iii. Information Resource Integration Strategy

Information Resource Integration can be defined as the process of comprehensive integration and utilization of information resources for various users in heterogeneous networks, heterogeneous data, heterogeneous platforms, and heterogeneous applications. The Information Resource Integration Strategy is a comprehensive arrangement for this process.

Which key points need to be considered in the information resource integration strategy to effectively solve the problems currently faced by enterprises?

1. Understand the value of information resource integration

2. Standardize and effectively organize information resources

3. It is understood that the integration of information resources is hierarchical. Information Resource Integration Layers can generally be divided into data integration, application integration, and business flow integration. The lower the layer, the easier the technology to implement, but the lower the value.

4. Understanding Information Resource Integration is a combination of technologies.
