create an IT strategy with the following considerations:
You can invest up to 25 percent of your current yearly revenue in your IT solution
You expect your sales to grow 300 percent in the next year (this means that you have to look for a solution where you can easily add additional resources)
You will use a cloud based solution for all other systems and applications
IT Services
List all the applications and services your company need (at least you will need to mention applications for customers, products, inventory, orders, and invoicing)
Determine whether the above will be offered as IaaS, PaaS or SaaS (Each service can use a different delivery model)
Why did you select that delivery model for your services (IaaS instead of SaaS, for example)?
Determine which cloud vendors will host your services and why you selected them. (They can be hosted with different vendors, and they can be sold as different services)
If possible, share how much would each of those services cost
Do you need dedicated broadband for your line of business? If so, which vendor would you use and how much would it cost?
Does your cloud vendor provide assistance with migrating your services from your current solution to what you are about to acquire? If not, how will you do it?
Will you migrate all services and applications at once? Would your migration be in parallel? Justify your answer
How will you plan for your expected growth?
Security
Which strategies will you use to protect your business from cyber threats?
Please identify which strategies will take place at the infrastructure or system design level, and which ones will take place at the end user level
How will you make sure your customer’s private and financial information are safe?
