1 Write short notes on:
Infrastructure-as-a-Service
(IaaS),
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).
Ans- Infrastructure-as-a-Service like Amazon
Web Services provides
virtual
server instance
API (Application programming
interface) to start,
stop, access and configure
their virtual servers
and storage. In
the enterprise, cloud computing allows a company to pay for only
as much capacity as is needed, and bring
more online as soon as required. Because this pay-forwhat-you-use model
resembles the way
electricity, fuel and
water are consumed, it's sometimes referred to as
utility computing.

2 What are the governing bodies
for cloud services and what are their roles
and responsibilities?
Ans- Establishment of the governance body
You need your own group
of people who understand your business to dealwith the
business of the
cloud. This governance
board might consist
of representatives of
corporate, departmental, and IT management
to help encourage
communication the kind
necessary to link
IT management and
the business.
This board may
also create other
groups responsible for different
aspects of

3.What is cloud
client in cloud
computing technology?
Explain three different types of hardware clients.
Ans- Clients
A cloud
client consists of
computer hardware and/or
computer software which relies on cloud omputing for application delivery, it embraces
the use of cloud
computing architectures but
adds a client
technology that runs locally on a computer
or device and
can interact with
local applications and resources. It also acts as
an interface between
cloud and the common computer user through
web browsers and
thin computing terminals.
So the term
cloud client describes
a piece of
hardware, a piece
of software or
both, that is specifically
designed for a cloud service.

4 Write the merits and demerits of
cloud storage.
Ans- Merits and Demerits of Cloud Storage
There are
several advantages of the cloud
storage model compared
to networked online storage and individual storage. The data stored in the end user device cannot be accessed easily by
others whereas the cloud storage data is
with third party. In cloud storage since it is with third party there are
more prone
to loss or
theft. Networked storage
devices addressing those Bproblems, but they still require both human
and physical resources that an individual or
a corporation may
not possess. For
example, creating a redundant storage
array and backing
it up is
outside the skill
set of most
people, while
building and maintaining
a data center
is beyond the
core capabilities of most

5. Explain why companies prefer
private cloud than the public cloud?
Ans- Reasons why companies prefer
private cloud than the public cloud.
Your organization has a huge, well-run data
center with a lot of spare capacity.
It would be more expensive to use a
public cloud even if you have to add new
software to transform that data center into a cloud.
Your organization offers IT services to a
large ecosystem of partners as part of
your core business.
Therefore, a private
cloud could be a revenue source.

PROGRAM BCA (REVISED FALL 2012)
SUBJECT CODE & NAME BCA6021 –
KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT
1. What are
the internal and
external forces that
drive Knowledge Management?
Explain in brief.
The Future of Knowledge
Management
The future of knowledge
management can be analyzed by three continuing trends:
(1) Benefit
to KM due
to progress in
information technologies: KM will benefit
from continual and
dynamic progress in
information technologies. Since
cost of digitizing
information has become
very minimal due to improvements
in cost/performance ratios of IT, KM will become
inevitable. The cost
of coordination across
individuals, organizational sub-units,
or organizations

2. Define data, information and
knowledge. How are they related?
Data, information and knowledge
In the previous unit, you have
already read about the data, information and
knowledge. Let us discuss the
same in different perspectives. We can
read data, we grasp information, and we
acquire knowledge. We can also store data,
information, and knowledge in the computer. So we must differentiate these
terms – data,
information and knowledge
in the perceptual
and cognitive space and be able
to differentiate them in the computational space.

3. What are the key differences
between conventional system lifecycle
and KM system lifecycle?
Key differences between conventional
system lifecycle and KM system lifecycle:
The main objective of the
conventional system lifecycle and the KM system lifecycle is same, i.e., to enable the project
to be accomplished more easily and
efficiently. But there
are some differences
between both the
system lifecycle in the way both
the system accomplish any task or project. The key
differences between both the
conventional system lifecycle and KM system lifecycle are shown in table 4.1 in terms of
phases through whic h both the system
passes for the development of software project.

4. Explain Nonaka’s Model of Knowledge
Creation & Transformation.
Nonaka’s Model of Knowledge
Creation & Transformation
In 1995, Ikujiro Nonaka, a
Japanese organizational theorist and Professor Emeritus at the Graduate
School of International Corporate Strategy of the Hitotsubashi University,
coined the terms
tacit knowledge and
explicit knowledge as
the two main
types of human
knowledge. The key to
knowledge creation
lies in the
way it is
mobilized and converted
through technology. In the
earlier unit, knowledge management has been defined as performing the
activities involved in
discovering, capturing, sharing,
and applying knowledge
so as to
enhance, in a
cost-effective fashion, the
impact of knowledge on the unit’s goal achievement.

Steps involved in using the
Delphi method:
Identify issue or question that needs to be
addressed; typically this will be
a complex issue requiring expert advice.
Form
Delphi team of
voluntary participants to
undertake in project
as well as monitor research
activities. Select appropriate participants who are experts with matter at hand.
Create
first set of
Delphi question, pilot
questionnaire to avoid
using improper wording
that is ambiguous or vague
Distribute first questionnaire to panelist
