Task
Further Background
Refer to background information provided in Assessment 1 regarding the Commonwealth Government ‘My Health Record’ project.

The project is considering cloud based solutions which should be investigated. Consider various aspects of cloud based solutions such as; data security, which includes data ownership (by Department of Health, the young person, medical professionals, the Emergency Department etc). As well as other relevant aspects of cloud solutions.

Complete the Following
Please refer to the marking guide when preparing your response to see what criteria and standards will be used to assess your work and your progress.

Non-Functional Requirements
This sets out the critical system qualities, system interfaces, user interface requirements, and system constraints.
Use to ‘FURPS+’ acronym as reference, and ensure you at cover the non-functional aspects of the acronym, Usability, Reliability, Performance and Security.
Review of cloud based.

A review of strengths and weaknesses of cloud based solutions. Taking into consideration the environment which the solution would be deployed.

SDLC Approach

Write brief description of the Pros and Cons to approaching the project using the ‘Predictive’ SDLC, then the Pros and Cons to approach the project as ‘Adaptive’ SDLC. Then recommend either Predictive or Adaptive to the SDLC for the project and briefly describe why.

Rationale
This assignment is intended to develop and test your ability to research information system relevant issues. As well as develop requirement information. Also to consider the appropriate approach depending on criteria of Information System solution.
