ABSTRACT

Produced for a steel plant organization, this Infrastructure Management System (IMS) is a web application executed utilizing ASP.NET with C#. It basically focuses on the board and upkeep of foundation subtleties in the organization, for example, cartridge subtleties, mock subtleties, server subtleties, programming subtleties and record subtleties.

IMS reduces the physical work of maintaining server information through log books. It improves efficiency in the department, makes use of online service, creates an easy platform to make data available to senior officials for quick decision making, and helps in better administration overall.

ABOUT INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:

Visakhapatnam Steel Plant has more than 50 servers that handle various operations in the steel plant. These servers require periodic maintenance and management, and the proposed IMS works simultaneously with server management system, an intranet web application. Read more about this in the project report.

As of now, the administration of server data is done by means of log books; this requires a great deal of physical work, and it is time taking. The proposed application is for foundation the board gathering of steel plant; it will deal with the whole framework in the office and make getting to specific data simpler than by means of log books.

The key features of Infrastructure Management System are

• It is a computerized web application where only authenticated users can log in.
• Accessing and retrieving a particular information or data is lot more easy with this application.
• It avoids duplication of work and redundancy in data.
• Data is more secured.
• Paper work and physical manpower is drastically reduced.

MODULES USED IN IMS:

1. Server Management: To handles different activities and host various applications, Visakhapatnam Steel Plant keeps up a few servers. This module oversees server subtleties including server name, server make, information of procurement and so on.
2. Server Maintenance: This modules maintains servers on a periodic basic and updates details such as problems faced, parts replaced etc.
3. Cartridge Management: Cartridges are used for backup of information and data. This module handles cartridge details such as cartridge name, state, backup number, and more.
4. Mock Restoration: Whenever required, the backed up data can be restored into the system. And, this modules checks the correctness of the data written on the cartridge.
5. Software Management: It contains the software type and hardware details and manages them.
6. Document Management: It manages various documents received along with server.

COMMUNICATION INTERFACE:

• The client ought to have the option to see the report absent a lot of flat as well as vertical parchment.
• Parchment required, assuming any, ought to be least.
• The client ought to have the option to remove a perfect print from the report.
• There is time management for log in and display of database information. For log in, maximum time is 5 seconds, and for display of information, the maximum time is 10 seconds.

CONCLUSION:

Verification and validation procedures show that the proposed system satisfies the user and system requirements. Currently, this application handles mainly server management and cartridge management. New features or modules can be incorporated into the proposed system to make it better for overall infrastructure management in the department.
