Sample Proposal

1.0 Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

We are here to introduce our Data Management System for Tulay sa Pag-Unlad Incorporation (T.S.P.I.) Development Corporation. The Corporation was published in October 09, 1981, headed by their “President Mr. Ruben C. Delaria”, it is located at 1260 Guadalupe Nuevo, Makati City. The Corporation was divided in 13 centers and with an appropriate reason, we choose the “Dubai Center” because it was the nearest center we can provide a system handled by the chairman Mrs. Patricia A. Patriarca. Every center has 30 members that can borrow money from the corporation that is good for six months and must be paid back in installment payments. We offer this system to prevent the lost of information’s. This Data Management System is more efficient and reliable for managing Time, organizing Data and provides Value for cost-effectiveness.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

1.2.1 General Problem

The Corporation used the old system which is the manual listing of information’s in data storage, the Record books. These Record books containing information only the Names, Date and Time and the amount of Money they dropped are listed.

1.2.2 Specific Problem

There are problems of using Record books handled by the Chairman of the Dubai center; for the lost of Data, it’s hard to tell that all information in the Record books are normally protected. There are cases of lost of pages or even the Record book, for those members who need to refund their money for emergency purposes…there’s nothing to retrieve.

1.3 Objectives of the Study

1.3.1 General Objective

Our general Objective is to change the old system into Data Management System for more efficient, faster, secured and useful storing of Information.

1.3.2 Specific Objective

In this Data Management System, they will not going to use Record books as their usual storage instead they will use Personal Computer. In a short period and span of time they can store and find Data they need and it will easier for them to manage and manipulate their important Information. By the use of ORACLE, (the Software we use to implement the System) problems in storing Data and lost of information will lessen.

1.4 Significance of the Study

This Data Management System provides Benefit for the Members of Dubai center: It is Easy to store and find their Data and it will be easier for them to refund their money for emergency purposes. For the Corporation: It is easy to manipulate Data and manage important information. For the Country: It improves the Standard and offers a high quality of Services.

1.5 Scope and Limitations

The Software we use is the Oracle Database (commonly referred to as Oracle RDBMS or simply ORACLE) consists of a relational database management system (RDBMS). About the installation of ORACLE into a Personal Computer, wrong installation process of this software turn to breaking down of the computer’s system. Only a person who has a knowledge and background of using and installing this software can have the access to install it.

2.0 Methodology

Data Management System for T.S.P.I.

Since we are on the process of learning ORACLE, we need the use of our handouts for using the commands and we need to have the installer of ORACLE for the installation of the software to implement the System.For the user of the software, we provide all the handouts containing all the procedure of installing it including all the usage of the commands need to be familiar.For the installation of the software that is too sensitive, we need the guidance of our instructor and list all the procedure of how to install it.

3.0 Review of Related Studies

Case StudyNASDAQ Stock Market, Inc.NASDAQ Deploys SQL Server 2005 to Support Real-Time Booking and Queries

NASDAQ, which became the world’s first electronic stock market in 1971, and remains largest U.S electronic stock market, is constantly looking for more efficient ways to serve its members. As the organization prepared to retire its aging large mainframe computers, it deployed Microsoft SQL Server 2005 on two 4-node clusters to support its Market Data Dissemination System (MDDS). Every trade that is processed in the NASDAQ marketplace goes through the MDDS system, with SQL Server 2005 handling some 5,000 transactions per second at market open. SQL Server 2005 simultaneously handles about 100,000 queries day, using SQL Server 2005 Snapshot isolation to support real-time queries against the data without slowing the database. NASDAQ is enjoying a lower total cost of ownership compared to the large mainframe computer system that the SQL Server 2005 deployment has replaced.

Situation

NASDAQ is the largest U.S electronic stock market. With approximately

3,300 companies, its lists more companies and, on average, trades more shares per day than any other U.S market. NASDAQ prides itself in being the home to category-defining companies that are leaders across all areas of business including technology, retail, communications, financial services, transportation, media, and biotechnology.

Since its debut in 1971 as the world’s first electronic stock market, NASDAQ has been at the forefront of innovation, using technology to bring millions of inventors together with the world’s leading companies. Trades are executed through a computer and telecommunications network that transmits

timely, critical investment information to more than 1.3 million users in 83 countries.

As part of its ongoing commitment to providing the most technically advanced infrastructure and the greatest value for traders, NASDAQ is replacing large mainframe computers with Intel-based servers that are more powerful, easier to customizes and manage, and less expensive to acquire and maintain. A key area designated for large mainframe computer retirement was the trade reporting system that NASDAQ market participant’s access for trade summary, risk management, broker clearing, and related needs.Because this information is needed in real time, NASDAQ needed a solution that would offer:

Enterprise-ready availability and performance. Agility to enable NASDAQ’s internal developers to swiftly react to cus-

tomer need. Lower total cost of ownership to help NASDAQ provide the best value to

its members.

Solution

NASDAQ’s internal development team created its Market Data Dissemination System (MDDS) using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 database running on the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition operating system. Both Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 2005 are part of Microsoft Windows Server System integrated server software. MDDS receives direct feeds from NASDAQ’s trade reporting system, and collects the data, storing it in SQL Server 2005. It in then available in real time for queries by market participants, including those using the NASDAQ Workstation, a Web based tool that connects to NASDAQ trading systems.

MDDS is a critical system for NASDAQ, as it keeps the official daily record of all trades. It must be fast and highly available because data is constantly inserted. NASDAQ’s MDDS solution receives about 8 million new rows of data per day, and gives user a view into risk management, trade summary, broker clearing, and NASDAQ market calendar information.

MDDS handles 5,000 transactions per second plus a large volume of Web queries that come from NASDAQ’s WebLinkACT 2.0 a browser-based application that electronically facilities the post-execution steps of price and volume reporting, comparison, and clearing of trades.

Some of the basic elements of the solution include use of:SQL Server 2005 Stored Procedures- Stored procedures are used to

implement business rules and other functions, including identification of system users to determine what data are allowed to see. (One trader can’t examine the transactions to another trader.)

SQL Server 2005 Snapshot Isolation- To facilitate query responses without slowing the real-time delivery of trading information, the solution uses the Snapshot Isolation feature of SQL Server 2005, which provides data concurrency without requiring locking, through use of temporary database that holds updated row versions for each transaction.

SQL Server 2005 Database Mirroring- MASDAQ is evaluating of SQL Server 2005 Database Mirroring as part of its disaster recovery infrastructure. Database Mirroring increases availability of SQL Server 2005 database by copying transaction log information directly from one server to another, providing the option of quickly transferring operations to the standby server if the primary server becomes unavailable.

The solution is hosted on two 4-node active/active cluster using computer running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Clustering Services. Each computer has four 3.3 gigahertz (GHz) processors and 32 gigabytes (GB) of memory.

Benefits

The move to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 is providing NASDAQ with number of benefits, including lower total cost of ownership, agility to meet customer needs, real-time reporting with Snapshot Isolation, and enterprise availability and performance.

Lower Total Cost of Ownership

Moving applications from mainframe to server-based environments can bring substantial savings, which is important to NASDAQ because it exist in an increasingly competitive market. “One of the most important initiatives here at NASDAQ is to get our technology costs down to provide greater value for NASDAQ members,” says Ken Richmond, Vice President of Software Engineering, and Market Information System at NASDAQ. “Reducing costs was primary driver for this project. The project has been a great success when you look at the total cost of ownership compared to our old system,”

NASDAQ, like many other organizations around the world, is being asked to do more for less. “In essence we’re in a commodity business,” says Richmond “As with other commodity businesses our prices continue to fall at the same time that the volumes we must handle are going up. Ten years ago NASDAQ earned about penny per trade. Today we make about one-tenth of a penny per trade. SQL Server 2005 is helping us meet our goals of offering our customers more while charging them less”.

Agility to Meet Customer Needs

Moving trade booking operations from the large mainframe computer database to SQL Server 2005 has great enhance the agility NASDAQ internal developers enjoy when customizing existing or creating new solution.

“We have so much more flexibility with SQL Server 2005,” says Richmond. “The differences really stand out when someone asks for an application to make what I felt was fairly large change involving adding new functionality to an application. The change would have been exceedingly difficult to do with our old system. Working with SQL Server 2005 our team completed the task in three of four days.”

“We have a great set of development tools with SQL Server 2005.” says Paul Buu, Senior technical Specialist at NASDAQ.”“Management Studio provides great working environment that simplifies testing and debugging. I can simulate q query coming in from the client, for example, generate a report, and then test the whole process.”

NASDAQ developers like the fact that SQL Server 2005 significantly enhances the database programming model by hosting the Microsoft.NET framework version 2.0 Common Language Runtime (CLR). It enables writing procedures, triggers, and functions in any of the CLR languages, including Microsoft Visual C#R.NET 2003 development tool, Microsoft Visual Basic.Net 2003 development system, and Microsoft Visual C++ 2003 development system.

“So far we’ve been working with stored procedures, but we very much like the idea of the new SQL CLR features,” says Buu. “SQL CLR gives us the ability to integrate powerful programmatic solutions without taking the time hit of leaving the database to access an external application. NASDAQ is devoted to delivering real-time so the ability to use CLR from within the SQL CLR form within the SQL Server 2005 database is a much appreciated feature.”

Real-Time Reporting with Snapshot Isolation

Snapshot Isolation feature of SQL Server 2005 was a key motivation in NASDAQ’s decision to do an early deployment of the new database. “We process about 100,000 queries per day,” says Richmond. “We is early demonstration of Snapshot Isolation and knew this was the solution we needed

Data Management System for T.S.P.I.

to run queries against real-time data without slowing the delivery of trading data. It has worked perfectly for us.”

Executing or cleaning brokers and authorized NASDAQ supervisors can use queries to access a broad range of trading information including:

Trade Scan- Provides a range of trade information including reversals, step-out, and as-of-trades.

Advanced Trade Scans- Users can filter transaction by entering any com-bination of the following filters/criteria, which can be based on either cur-rent or prior day entry date, security symbol ID, contra firm, firm ID, Act ready, price, start trade time, and trade time, trade status, trade venue, by/against, trade side, and special indicators.

Quick Scan- Users can filter transaction by entering any combination of the following required filters/criteria, for current day: ACT control number FIX trade, reference ID, firm ID, trade status, and security symbol ID.

Summary Scans- Users can utilize the scan to view risk management summaries and real-time market exposure on the firm security level.

Risk Management Scans- Users can view risk management limit and real-time exposure. The risk management scans can be used by market maker, order entry, and clearing firms to view real-time market exposure for a firm (executing broker’s dollar limits, current trade dollar balance, percent but limit, percent sell limit, balance for each type of securities, and other factors).

“All queries are performed through stored procedures,” notes Ray Edwards, Director of Market Information System at NASDAQ. “We’ve created about 20 stored procedures that help the users vary parameters to provide different views of the data according to their query. This gives users the flexibility they need to research data. SQL Server 2005 Snapshot Isolation gives us the ability to support real-time queries without slowing database performance.”

Enterprise-Read Availability and Performance

NASDAQ needed a solution that was enterprise ready and found it with SQL Server 2005. “Every trade that it is processed in the NASDAQ marketplace goes through MDDS,” says Richmond. “When we started this project in May 2005 we decided that we would be better served using SQL Server 2005 even though it hadn’t yet been released. We’re now in the process of upgrading our other database form SQL Server 2005,”

The move form large mainframe computer to SQL Server 2005 and Intel-based servers is something of a milestone in the industry. “For years, we used large mainframe computers because of their reputation for reliability,” says Richmond. “The fact that we can move mission- critical applications from large mainframe computers to SQL Server 2005 and Intel-based server shows how both Microsoft and Intel are creating enterprise-grade solutions.”

4.0 Theoretical Framework

We are computer science student. In this proposal, we applied our knowledge as a System Analyst to improve and developed a System. This factor involved for accomplishment of the objectives, for the solution of business problems and improved business plan. We need a reliable Strategies and Guidance from our Instructor for effective system enhancement and implementation, application of tested solution based on solution construct and planning for the On-going Maintenance and developments of system flow during day-to-day Work or Transaction Processing System.
