Information Systems Management
I acquired a lot of fascinating and useful knowledge in this lesson. I was concerned when I initially read the description of this class. Because computers aren't really my thing. I know how to switch on the computer and perform whatever I need to do for work, and I have some general knowledge, but I am dumb beyond that. So I honestly expected to despise this class. As it
turned out, I learnt a lot of useful and intriguing knowledge. We reviewed the many types of information and management systems, as well as security issues and the relevance of MIS. In this paper, I will summarize the various topics that we discussed. Five- Component Framework
We discussed information systems using the five-component framework in the first Unit of this semester. Essentially, this framework explains how computer and information systems work. Hardware, software, data, procedures, and people are the five components. Computers, tablets, and displays are examples of hardware. Software instructs the machine on what to do, which is subsequently arranged into data. The data holds everything together and compiles it into
a report. The next component is procedures, which instruct the user or individuals on how to use the system. Finally, humans enter and analyze data. (Kroenke & Boyle, 2020). Porters Five Forces Model
The five forces model is used to identify the primary sources of company competitiveness. Rivalry, supplier power, buyer power, threat of substitution, and threat of new entrance are the five forces. (Mind Tools, 2022). Rivalry occurs when businesses begin to offer similar services while attempting to outperform the competition. When each company buys from a distinct manufacturer, this is referred to as supplier power. Buyer power occurs when prices in
3
various markets fall. The threat of substitution implies that they provide other services in place of
the identical service provided by another company. Finally, the threat of new entry occurs when a
new business enters a market yet provides the same services as existing businesses (Kroenke & Boyle, 2020). Collaborative Information System. This information system facilitates commercial information sharing. This makes working so much easier as more and more people work remotely. It can also be used for project management, decision making, and problem solving. It makes it much easier for teams to manage projects and discuss how to complete them. This technique could also help with meeting attendance issues (Kroenke & Boyle, 2020). Microsoft Teams is an excellent example of CIS. When someone requires assistance, everyone can gather in one system for a meeting or a group chat.
Database Management System. The definition of this is basically a system that keeps all the data in one place (IBM, 2010). Databases are a collection of different things that help aid in the management of the database (Kroenke & Boyle, 2020). Another important point about database management is that all of the data is typically easily accessible and can be updated and managed fairly easy (
What Is Database? Types, Examples and Advantages, 2020
). A popular type of database management system is MongoDB. Content Management System
These types of systems support the management and delivery of documents. Content management systems are helpful because people can create a system or content to help someone else out (Kroenke & Boyle, 2020). For example, WordPress. People can make a website on that system. Someone came up with that system to help someone else.
