What are the disadvantages of virtualization?

 Disadvantages of Virtualization

1. It can have a high cost of implementation: 

When considering virtualization, the ordinary individual or corporation will incur relatively minimal costs. However, the installation expenses for virtualized environment providers might be fairly substantial. At some point, hardware and software are necessary, which implies devices must be designed, made, or acquired for implementation.

2. It still has limitations: 

Not every program or server will function properly in a virtualized environment. This indicates that a hybrid system may be required for an individual or company to function successfully. This still saves time and money in the long term, but because not every manufacturer supports virtualization and some may discontinue support after the initial implementation, there is always a sense of uncertainty when completely installing this sort of system. It creates a security risk: Information is our modern currency. You can make money if you have it. You will be disregarded if you do not have it. Because data is critical to a company's success, it is regularly targeted.

3. It creates an availability issue:

 The main issue that many people have about virtualization is what will happen to their job if their assets are unavailable. If a company is unable to connect to its data for a lengthy length of time, it will struggle to compete in its field. Furthermore, because availability is controlled by third-party providers, the capacity to stay connected with virtualization is out of one's hands.

4. It creates a scalability issue: 

Because of virtualization, you can develop a business or opportunity rapidly, but you may not be able to develop as much as you would like. When you initially start, you may be compelled to be bigger than you want to be. Growth causes slowness inside a virtualized network since numerous entities share the same resources. There is little anybody can do if a huge presence diverts resources away from multiple smaller enterprises.

5. It requires several links in a chain that must work together cohesively:

 If you have access to local equipment, you have complete control over what you can accomplish. Because numerous connections must collaborate to complete the same activity, you lose control of virtualization. As an example, consider saving a document file. You may save the file immediately and even generate a backup with a local storage device, such as a flash drive or HDD. Your ISP connection must be active to use virtualization. Your LAN or Wi-Fi must be operational. Your online storage choice must be accessible. If any of these don't work, you're not saving that file.

6. It takes time: 

Although virtualization saves time during the installation phases, it costs users time in the long run when compared to local systems.  This is because more procedures must be taken to get the desired result.

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?

a) A Snowflake Shema is shown in figure below: b) The specific OLAP operations to be performed: 1. Roll-up on course from course_id to department. 2. Roll-up on a student from student_id to university. 3. Dice on course, student with department ="CS" and university = "biguniversity" 4. Drill-down on a student from the university to student_name. c) N = 4 dimensions The cube will contain 54 = 625 cuboids.

Suppose that a data warehouse consists of the three dimensions time, doctor, and patient, and the two measures count and charge, where a charge is the fee that a doctor charges a patient for a visit. a) Draw a schema diagram for the above data warehouse using one of the schemas. [star, snowflake, fact constellation] b) Starting with the base cuboid [day, doctor, patient], what specific OLAP operations should be performed in order to list the total fee collected by each doctor in 2004? c) To obtain the same list, write an SQL query assuming the data are stored in a relational database with the schema fee (day, month, year, doctor, hospital, patient, count, charge)

Solution: a) Star Schema is shown in the figure below: b) First, we should use the roll-up operation to get the year 2004(rolling-up from the day then month to a year). After getting that, we need to use the slice operation to select (2004). Second, we should use roll-up operation again to get all patients. Then, we need to use the slice operation to select (all). Finally, we get a list of the total fee collected by each doctor in 2004. So, 1. roll up from day to month to year 2. slice for year = “2004” 3. roll up on patient from the individual patient to all 4. slice for patient = “all” 5. get the list of the total fees collected by each doctor in 2004 c) Select doctor, Sum(charge) From fee Where year = 2004 Group by doctor

Pure Versus Partial EC

Pure Versus Partial EC EC takes several forms depending on the degree of digitization (the transformation from physical to digital). Companies utilizing pure EC conduct all of their business online. Businesses utilizing partial EC conduct a portion of their business online and a portion of their business off-line OR,    Pure E-electronic commerce refers to a situation where a business transacts its business activities PURELY online. that is, the goods or services sold do not have any physical presence. take a business that sells software, for example, you just pay and download, or one that sells music files online. Partial E-Commerce on the other hand refers to a slightly opposite situation where a business has an online presence, but still has a physical location for the goods and services it sells. For example, Amazon, Walmart, and any other you can think of. you buy the goods online but receive them physically.                   ...
