In the context of this book, you are the system administrator of a growing small business.

2.1. Nevoi în TI care cresc repede

Falcot Corp is a manufacturer of high quality audio equipment. The company is growing strongly, and has two facilities, one in Saint-Étienne, and another in Montpellier. The former has around 150 employees; it hosts a factory for the manufacturing of speakers, a design lab, and all administrative office. The Montpellier site is smaller, with only about 50 workers, and produces amplifiers.
The information system has had difficulty keeping up with the company's growth, so they are now determined to completely redefine it to meet various goals established by management:
  • infrastructură modernă și ușor scalabilă;
  • reducerea costurilor licențelor de programe, datorată folosirii Programelor Libere;
  • instalarea unui sit de comerț electronic, posibil unul care face legătura dintre firme diferite, ca de exemplu dintre furnizor și clienți săi;
  • significant improvement in security to better protect trade secrets related to new products.
The entire information system will be overhauled with these goals in mind.
