Overview
Trey Research conducts agricultural research and sells the results to the agriculture and food industries.
The company uses a combination of on-premises and third-party server clusters to meet its storage needs.
Trey Research has seasonal demands on its services, with up to 50 percent drops in data capacity and bandwidth demand during low-demand periods. They plan to host their websites in an agile, cloud environment where the company can deploy and remove its websites based on its business requirements rather than the requirements of the hosting company.
A recent fire near the datacenter that Trey Research uses raises the management team's awareness of the vulnerability of hosting all of the company's websites and data at any single location. The management team is concerned about protecting its data from loss as a result of a disaster.
Websites
Trey Research has a portfolio of 300 websites and associated background processes that are currently hosted in a third-party datacenter. All of the websites are written in ASP.NET, and the background processes use Windows Services. The hosting environment costs Trey Research approximately S25 million in hosting and maintenance fees.
Infrastructure
Trey Research also has on-premises servers that run VMs to support line-of-business applications. The company wants to migrate the line-of-business applications to the cloud, one application at a time. The company is migrating most of its production VMs from an aging VMWare ESXi farm to a Hyper-V cluster that runs on Windows Server 2012.
Applications
DistributionTracking
Trey Research has a web application named Distributiontracking. This application constantly collects realtime data that tracks worldwide distribution points to customer retail sites. This data is available to customers at all times.
The company wants to ensure that the distribution tracking data is stored at a location that is geographically close to the customers who will be using the information. The system must continue running in the event of VM failures without corrupting data. The system is processor intensive and should be run in a multithreading environment.
HRApp
The company has a human resources (HR) application named HRApp that stores data in an on-premises SQL Server database. The database must have at least two copies, but data to support backups and business continuity must stay in Trey Research locations only. The data must remain on-premises and cannot be stored in the cloud.
HRApp was written by a third party, and the code cannot be modified. The human resources data is used by all business offices, and each office requires access to the entire database. Users report that HRApp takes all night to generate the required payroll reports, and they would like to reduce this time.
MetricsTracking
Trey Research has an application named MetricsTracking that is used to track analytics for the DistributionTracking web application. The data MetricsTracking collects is not customer-facing. Data is stored on an on-premises SQL Server database, but this data should be moved to the cloud. Employees at other locations access this data by using a remote desktop connection to connect to the application, but latency issues degrade the functionality.
Trey Research wants a solution that allows remote employees to access metrics data without using a remote desktop connection. MetricsTracking was written in-house, and the development team is available to make modifications to the application if necessary. However, the company wants to continue to use SQL Server for MetricsTracking.
Business Requirements

Applications written to access the data must be authenticated.
Access and activity must be monitored and audited.
Ensure the security and integrity of the data collected from the worldwide distribution points for the
distribution tracking application.
Storage and Processing
You have the following requirements:
Provide real-time analysis of distribution tracking data by geographic location.
Collect and store large datasets in real-time data for customer use.
Locate the distribution tracking data as close to the central office as possible to improve bandwidth.
Co-locate the distribution tracking data as close to the customer as possible based on the customer's
location.
Distribution tracking data must be stored in the JSON format and indexed by metadata that is stored in
a SQL Server database.
Data in the cloud must be stored in geographically separate locations, but kept with the same political
boundaries.
Technical Requirements
Migration
You have the following requirements:
Deploy all websites to Azure.
Replace on-premises and third-party physical server clusters with cloud-based solutions.
Optimize the speed for retrieving exiting JSON objects that contain the distribution tracking data.
Recommend strategies for partitioning data for load balancing.
Auditing and Security
You have the following requirements:

Background
Overview
Northwind Electric Cars is the premier provider of private, low-cost transportation in Denver. Northwind drivers are company employees who work together as a team. The founding partners believe that by hiring their drivers as employees, their drivers focus on providing a great customer experience. Northwind Electric Cars has a reputation for offering fast, reliable, and friendly service, due largely to their extensive network of drivers and their proprietary dispatching software named NorthRide.
Northwind Electric Cars drivers depend on frequent, automatic updates for the NorthRide mobile app. The Northwind management team is concerned about unplanned system downtime and slow connection speeds caused by high usage. Additionally, Northwind's in-house data storage solution is unsustainable because of the new influx of customer data that is retained. Data backups are made periodically on DVDs and stored on-premises at corporate headquarters.
Apps
NorthRide App
Northwind drivers use the NorthRide app to meet customer pickup requests. The app uses a GPS transponder in each Northwind vehicle and Bing Maps APIs to monitor the location of each vehicle in the fleet in real time. NorthRide allows Northwind dispatchers to optimize their driver coverage throughout the city.
When new customers call, the dispatcher enters their pickup locations into NorthRide. NorthRide identifies the closest available driver. The dispatcher then contacts the driver with the pick-up details. This process usually results in a pick-up time that is far faster than the industry average.
Drivers use NorthRide to track the number of miles they drive and the number of customers they transport.
Drivers also track their progress towards their established goals, which are measured by using key performance indicators (KPIs).
NorthRide App 2.0
Northwind Electric Cars is growing quickly. New callers often wait for their calls to be answered because the dispatchers are contacting their drivers to arrange pickups for other customers.
To support the growth of the business, Northwind's development team completes an overhaul of the NorthRide system that it has named NorthRide 2.0. When a dispatcher enters a customer's pickup location, the address and driving directions are automatically sent to the driver who is closest to the customer's pickup location.
Drivers indicate their availability on the NorthRide mobile app and can view progress towards their KPI's in real time. Drivers can also record customer ratings and feedback for each pickup.
Business Requirements
Apps
NorthRideFinder App
Northwind Electric Cars needs a customer-facing website and mobile app that allows customers to schedule pickups. Customers should also be able to create profiles that will help ensure the customer gets a ride faster by storing customer information.
Predictor App
Northwind Electric Cars needs a new solution named Predictor. Predictor is an employee-facing mobile app. The app predicts periods of high usage and popular pickup locations and provides various ways to view this predictive data. Northwind uses this information to better distribute its drivers. Northwind wants to use the latest Azure technology to create this solution.
Other Requirements
On-premises data must be constantly backed up.
Mobile data must be protected from loss, even if connectivity with the backend is lost.
Dispatch offices need to have seamless access to both their primary data center and the applications
and services that are hosted in the Azure cloud.
Connectivity needs to be redundant to on-premises and cloud services, while providing a way for each
dispatch office to continue to operate even if one or all of the connection options fail.
The management team requires that operational data is accessible 24/7 from any office location.
Technical Requirements
Apps and Website
NorthRide / NorthRideFinder Apps:
The solution must support on-premises and Azure data storage.
The solution must scale as necessary based on the current number of concurrent users.
Customer pickup requests from NorthRideFinder must be asynchronous.
The customer pickup request system will be high in volume, and each request will have a short life
span.
Data for NorthRideFinder must be protected during a loss of connectivity.
NorthRide users must authenticate to the company's Azure Active Directory.
Northwind Public Website
The customer website must use a WebJob to process profile images into thumbnails
The customer website must be developed with lowest cost and difficulty in mind.
The customer website must automatically scale to minimize response times for customers.
Other Requirements
Data Storage:
The data storage must interface with an on-premises Microsoft SQL backend database.
A disaster recovery system needs to be in place for large amounts of data that will backup to Azure.
Backups must be fully automated and managed the Azure Management Portal.
The recovery system for company data must use a hybrid solution to back up both the on-premises
Microsoft SQL backend and any Azure storage.
Predictive Routing:
An Azure solution must be used for prediction systems.
Predictive analytics must be published as a web service and accessible by using the REST API.
Security:
The NorthRide app must use an additional level of authentication other than the employee's password.
Access must be secured in NorthRide without opening a firewall port.
Company policy prohibits inbound connections from internet callers to the on-premises network.
Customer usernames in NorthRideFinder cannot exceed 10 characters.
Customer data in NorthRideFinder can be received only by the user ID that is associated with the data.
