CMIT 391 Project 1: Migration Proposal Presentation - Due

Faster Computing has contacted Go2Linux and requested a brief proposal presentation for migrating its systems from Windows to Linux.

The company is specifically interested in seeing the following information:

(1.1.3: Summary, Introduction, and Voice Narration)

The deliverable for this phase of the project is a three- to five-slide PowerPoint narrated presentation.

• An introductory slide
• A summary slide
• Voice narration on every slide

For each slide, you will embed your own audio recording as if you were presenting the content to the Faster Computing team. Faster Computing has not yet committed to the project, so this should be presented as a proposal. The presentation should be visually appealing; the inclusion of at least one image that supports the content and adds value to the proposal is required.

(1.3.3: Sources/References )

You must cite at least two quality sources.

You used at least 2 references and your references were cited properly following an accepted style. Ask your instructor for clarification.

Use the Migration Proposal Presentation template to get started.

(2.3.1: Conclusion Slide) 

You should present your proposal as if you are selling to the company. Revisit all of these important reasons in the summary slide.

(10.1.1: Linux Benefits and Distribution Choice)

• Based on your current understanding of Faster Computing's business, what are some potential benefits of Linux?
• The company is aware that many different Linux derivatives exist. Be very specific and choose only one distribution (e.g., Ubuntu, Mint, Zorin, Redhat, CentOS, Kali). Which would Go2Linux recommend, and why? Give specific reasons for your choice (e.g., security features, support, updates, user interface).

(10.1.2: Migration Steps and Graphical Interface)

• What steps will be required to migrate the systems from Windows to Linux?
• Are there graphical interfaces (i.e. desktop environments) available for the Linux workstations that would provide similar functionality to Windows? Some users are concerned about working with a command-line interface.

(10.1.3: Linux Server Tools)

• What tools are available on Linux for the servers to provide file sharing (NOT file transfer), Linux services, and printing? (e.g., Apache/Nginx, Samba, CUPS) Ensure you identify what the functions/services are used for (e.g., Samba is used for file sharing).
