IT Specialist Track

Completion Plan

As the IT Specialist, my intention is to complete the entire development of TerraWeb. My current skill set includes proficiency in cloud computing, AWS, Terraform, and web development. If needed, I will access relevant documentation, online resources, and seek guidance from experienced colleagues to address any technical challenges that may arise during the development process. My academic background and hands-on experiences have prepared me to handle the project effectively and ensure its successful completion.

Performance Measures and Quality Plan

Regular user surveys and feedback sessions will be used to collect information about user experiences, preferences, and areas for improvement. By actively engaging users, we can guarantee that TerraWeb properly serves their requirements and offers a great experience.

Deployment Time Reduction will be measured by comparing the time required to deploy AWS resources using TerraWeb versus conventional manual techniques. This will give quantitative statistics on the efficiency benefits realized via the use of the platform's automation and pre-configured templates.

Data Security Audits will include doing frequent security assessments and audits to examine the efficiency of the security measures that have been applied. This preventative strategy guarantees that any vulnerability are detected and fixed as soon as possible, reducing the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access.

Cost savings will be calculated by comparing the expenditures spent by manual resource deployments to the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) associated with TerraWeb. The platform's cost-effectiveness and potential cost savings for the company will be shown in this financial study.

I will guarantee that TerraWeb not only satisfies technical standards, but also offers significant value, user happiness, increased security, and financial advantages to our customers via these performance criteria.

Risk Management Plan

1. Scope Creep: To avoid scope creep, the project will have a well defined scope and implement a change request procedure. Regular contact with stakeholders will assist in ensuring that any prospective adjustments are properly reviewed in relation to the project's goals. This method will assist to keep the project on track by preventing unplanned scope growth. This risk is rated as medium because, although mitigation methods are successful, unexpected changes may still create problems.

2. Data Breach or Unauthorized Access: Implementing strong security measures, such as encryption, access limits, and frequent security audits, can lower the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access greatly. Regular audits will detect flaws and allow for quick correction. In the event of a breach, the contingency plan calls for quick isolation of compromised systems, restoration from backups, and timely notification with stakeholders. This risk is rated as high due to the potentially catastrophic implications of data breaches.

3. Inadequate Technical Support/Resources: Identifying backup resources and cooperating with knowledgeable colleagues will offer a safety net against resource scarcity. Effective communication and resource planning will guarantee that technical issues are resolved as soon as possible. This risk is rated as medium because, even when contingency preparations are in place, unanticipated situations may still have an effect on resources.

4. Fluctuations in AWS Service Availability Designing for fault tolerance and considering multi-region deployment will guarantee that the project continues to run even if AWS services are disrupted. This method reduces the effect of changes in service availability while preserving system operation. This risk is rated as high due to the crucial role AWS services play in the project's infrastructure.

The project team intends to proactively reduce any negative consequences and assure the successful development and deployment of TerraWeb by addressing these risks with suitable mitigation and contingency methods.
