What is web based information system? Advantages and disadvantages of web-based information systems?

Electronic commerce (E-commerce)


Web based information system:

An important component of modern computer based information system is web based information system. An information system based on the Internet is called a web-based information system. That is, when a user can use an information system through the Internet and the World Wide Web, that information system is called a web-based information system. A user of an information system on the Internet is called an Internet client. In this case, the client can use this information system from anywhere in the world by being connected to the Internet. Web based database is used in this system. When an Internet client sends an information request, the Web server verifies the client's right to receive the information in response to the request and sends the requested information to the client if it is a valid client. With the help of web based information system, the data of an organization can be collected, stored, presented, modernized and information can be exchanged and processed from one organization to another. E-commerce, e-marketing etc. are developed based on internet technology. Due to the rapid expansion of the World Wide Web, the use of web-based information systems and hypermedia documents is increasing day by day. Proper operation of web based information systems requires the use of satellite networks or wireless networks or telecommunication networks such as Internet, intranet and extranet. A network consists of computers, communication processors, modems and other devices. These are controlled by communication software. Software applications required by information systems are kept on servers. An application server sits between the web server and the database server. The user accesses the application server's information through the web server.


Advantages of web based information system:

(i) Web based information systems can be accessed from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

(ii) Always keep the data in this information system up to date.

(iii) User feedback is instantly available in information systems. As a result, it is easy to modify, extend and refine the system according to the user's needs.

(iv) System maintenance can be done online.

(v) This system can also be used through smart mobile phones.


Disadvantages of web based information system:

(a) Information systems are constantly exposed to security risks. Can be damaged by hackers at any time.

(b) These web based information systems cannot be accessed from remote locations without an Internet connection.

(c) System efficiency depends on network infrastructure, number of users, performance of servers and software.

What are the things to consider when buying a WiFi or broadband router for home, office, park and restaurant ?

Today we talk about What are the things to consider when buying a WiFi or broadband router for home, office, park and restaurant .I never like huge introduction about any topic . I always like very shortly introduce any-things to my viewers without any-type boring .So let's began the leanrning :- 1. Decide in advance how many devices you will use. 2. Decide how much space you need coverage. 3. Understand the structure of your home. WiFi signals become weak to penetrate the walls. That is why good coverage is not available. If you have a lot of walls in your house and you want to get coverage in the whole house, then you need a router with high power and wall penetration feature. 4. Decide what features you need in addition to the internet connection. Such as: - 4.1 3G 4G Modem Support- There are many routers that can use the modem. Those routers have a USB port and a one port so that broadband lines can be used. But remember that the modem must have the ability to auto-connect. Not...

What should the processor look at?

The things that we all should keep an eye on are the processor or not; 1. Clock speed 2. Number of course 3. cache memory 4. FBS 1. Clock Speed: It is also called GH2. All processors are written on. Clock speed means how fast your computer can work. That's what this signal means. The speed of the processor is known through this clock speed, how fast the calculation can be done. 2. Number of Cores: The more cores the processor has, the faster the processor can work. If I give an example to explain the matter, I hope you can understand it very easily. Suppose if a person had many hands, then he could do many things at the same time. That is, if we go to the market and buy a smartphone, then we will see what the configurations of the phone are. If we look closely at the configuration of the smartphone, we will see that Dual Core Processor, Quad Core Processor, Octa core processor, Hexa core processor, Deca core processor. This means that the dual core processor has two arms or cores, ...

What is transmission media? Introduction to different types of data transmission cables

Transmission media: When a PC communicates or wants to communicate with another PC, it has to take the help of some transmission media. The most commonly used media in the network are twisted pair cable, coaxial cable, fiber optic cable. Nowadays, the use of optical fiber is increasing greatly. Radio wave, microwave and infrared technologies are prominent among wireless media. Among these mediums, optical fiber has the highest data transfer speed. The type of medium used in a network depends on the type and location of that network. The connection system for exchanging information between the sender and the remote receiving end is called a channel. The means or methods used to implement the channel are called media. such as-- (i) Cable or wire. (ii) Common telephone lines. (ii) Radio waves. (iv) Microwave. (v) Geo-satellite systems etc. Cable or Wire: Cable is an important medium in data communication. Cables are generally used for data transfer over short range networking such as LAN...
