Cloud Benchmarking

Scenario
You are the cloud engineer for a construction company. Your company stores their complex architecture drawings on the public cloud.

The company has created a web application that allows clients to review the architecture drawings from this public cloud. The architectural drawings are large, which causes performance issues. Clients need to download the large files on their computers, causing an impact on the web site and creating client computer performance issues.

You are aware of benchmarking tools which can evaluate cloud service performances. Your manager asks you to compare some of these tools and recommend one to be implemented.

Instructions
Provide a proposal to your leadership to recommend a benchmarking tool and cloud services application. The proposal should include the following points.

A list of available cloud benchmarking tools
A comparison of this list
An explanation of the importance of benchmarking
A License Model for cloud benchmarking tools
The steps used to evaluate the performance of benchmarking tools
A description of the different ways to tune cloud services for improving performance

Be sure to use a professional tone and check your spelling and grammar.

Deploying Micro-Services Architecture on the Cloud

Scenario
You are a software developer for a large travel company. Your companys web application is more like a monolithic architecture. It allows the following functionality to end-users:

Make a travel reservation
Pay for your trip
Search for a travel site
Review an existing reservation
Cancel a reservation

These functionalities are implemented using a monolithic architecture. Monolithic architecture simplifies application development and deployment. However, there are major drawbacks for using this type of architecture.

The entire application must be redeployed for a simple change in functionality
It is difficult to implement Continuous integration/Continuous deployment
It takes a long time for the application to start up

There are a number of benefits of using a micro-services architecture. They include:

Less time to start the micro-service
Decoupled functionality
Easy deployment
Possible to implement the CI/CD pipeline
The micro-services can be deployed independently

In addition, you need to deploy the micro-services architecture onto the public cloud. Monitoring is one of the most important elements of application development. Application monitoring helps troubleshoot any application related issues by looking at the log messages. It also helps to ensure that applications are available 24/7.

One of the major benefits of the public cloud is that the infrastructure is code. It means that you can deploy all the infrastructure component using just code or scripts.

Instructions
Provide a Word memo, 6-7 pages in length, to your manager that includes the following:

A description of the benefits of micro-services architecture.
A description of micro-services architecture on a public cloud.
A description of the components used for deploying micro-services on a public cloud.
An explanation of how application monitoring is handled on a public cloud.
Describe the use of popular infrastructure as code tools.
A description of the benefits of using the infrastructure as the code.

Be sure to use a professional tone and check your grammar and spelling.

References
Include a minimum of 5 scholarly resources.

Read the following list of pros and cons of single-sex education and write a 3-5 page paper in which you analyze the arguments on both sides.

Read the following list of pros and cons of single-sex education and write a 3-5 page paper in which you analyze the arguments on both sides. Note — I am not asking you to take a position for or against single sex education, but rather to use the analytic tools introduced in this section (doing gender, gender rules, structural and cultural barriers to education, etc.) to critically examine the arguments on both sides. You can also refer to materials/concepts from other weeks if it is helpful.
