Does the logical technology architecture include:
Vendor-independent description (functions and features) and graphical representation of hardware and software components in the new systems infrastructure
Information about expected network loads at normal and peak processing periods
Information about any upgrades necessary to the existing network infrastructure, including information on specific carrier types
Information on all connected nodes (workstations, database servers, gateways, etc.), including:
Projected quantities
Role in the new IT architecture (client, service provider etc.)
Platform characteristics for protocol handling, storage capacities, performance, fault tolerance and security
Information on and graphical representation of the geographical location of the system’s infrastructure components
An approach for how the availability requirements will be met in terms of hardware/software capabilities, like fault tolerance, hot standbys, etc.
