Desarrollo de una plataforma de servicios gestionados para soluciones de contingencia en el Cloud

La proliferación en todo el mundo de las soluciones basadas en la nube hace que las empresas estén valorando mover su infraestructura o parte de ella a la nube, para así reducir los altos costes de inversión necesarios para mantener una infraestructura privada. Uno de los servicios que puede ser centralizado en la nube, mediante recursos compartidos entre varios clientes, son las soluciones de contingencia, como los servicios de protección de datos o los centros de recuperación ante desastres. Mediante este proyecto se pretende llevar a cabo el despliegue de una plataforma de servicios gestionados para ofrecer soluciones centralizadas, a clientes que lo requieran, de copias de seguridad y disaster recovery. Para la realización del proyecto se realizó un estudio de las tecnologías actuales para llevar a cabo la continuidad de negocio, los distintos tipos de backups, así como los tipos de replicación existente, local y remota. Posteriormente, se llevó a cabo un estudio de mercado para barajar las distintas posibilidades existentes para el despliegue de la infraestructura, siempre teniendo en cuenta el cliente objetivo. Finalmente, se realizó la fase de desarrollo, donde se detallan los componentes principales que componen la solución final, la localización de la infraestructura, un caso de uso, así como las principales ventajas de la solución. Se ha de destacar que se trata de un proyecto real, que se llevó a cabo en una empresa externa a la facultad, Omega Peripherals, donde una vez finalizado mi prácticum, se propuso dicho proyecto para desarrollarlo como continuación de mi labor en la empresa y formar parte de mi Trabajo Final de Grado (TFG). ---ABSTRACT---The worldwide proliferation of cloud-based solutions means that companies are evaluating their infrastructure or move part of it to the cloud, to reduce the high investment costs required to maintain a private infrastructure. One of the services that can be centralized in the cloud, through shared resources between multiple clients, are the solutions of contingency services as data protection or disaster recovery centers. This project aims to carry out the deployment of a managed services platform centralized solutions, to customers who need it, backup and disaster recovery services. The project consists of three phases. First, It was performed a study of the current business continuity technologies, the different types of backups, as well as replication types, local and remote. Second, it was performed a market study to shuffle the different possibilities for the deployment of infrastructure, keeping in mind the target customer. Finally, we found the development phase, where it details the main components that make up the final solution, the location of infrastructure, a use case, as well as the main advantages of the solution. It should be emphasized that this is a real project, which was carried out in an outside company to the university, called Omega Peripherals, where once I completed my practicum, it was proposed this project to develop it as a continuation of my job and develop it as my final dissertation.

Toward a planning model for the peruvian university system as a competitive strategy.

University education in Peru is based on models of teacher-centered teaching and a conception of knowledge which is closed and static and under the dominance of an information model now overwhelmed by multiple factors hastened by international change. The worlds most prestigious universities have chosen cultural diversity as a sign of quality and are hence interested in the mobility of teachers and students through exchange and cooperation with foreign educational institutions. These universities respond more effectively to pressure from the international business sector, better satisfy training demands, introduce new information and communication technologies into education and research and have improved administration and management structures. While there is progress, the university system in Peru is a planning model defined "as a discipline that seeks to respond to the needs of an organization defined by new cultural and social models" (A. Cazorla, et al 2007).This paper studies the non-Euclidean thinking of planning and development of John Friedmann (2001). Based on the four domains of social practice, it proposes a planning model for Peruvian universities that meets international requirements.

Development in Rural Areas Through Capacity Building and Education for Business

This paper is based on a case study located in Avila, central Spain. Its main objectives are to implement an entrepreneurship program and design a plan of capacity building and education for business in order to promote the development of rural areas. The methodological approach of the program is based on the use of tools that permit involving the various actors of the area from the early planning stages. The university's group that is carrying out the field work has relied on these participatory tools in very different areas and contexts for over 25 years. This has allowed the development of an advanced planning model called ?Working With People? that connects expert and experience knowledge in the territories where it is applied. With this methodological approach, the diagnosis of the territory and the design of the program's strategy has been carried out. Once completed the first phase of the program and in order to ensure the sustainability and applicability of future entrepreneurial initiatives, it is necessary to support and strengthen potential entrepreneurs through training activities and capacity building. It relies on ?How to learn from people who live there? to promote investment projects and to teach them with adequate educational skills. In this context, this article aims to study the implementation strategy of these training and capacity building activities studied from an academic perspective, as well as analyzing the potential effects of these actions in promoting entrepreneurship in the territories

The Territorial Dimension: The Component of Business Strategy that Prevents the Generation of Social Conflicts

Taking advantage of economic opportunities has led to numerous conflicts between society and business in various geographies of the world. Companies have developed social responsibility programs to prevent and manage these types of problems. However, some authors comment that these programs lack a strategic vision. Starting with the Working with People model, created for the field of rural development planning, this paper proposes a methodology to prevent the generation of social conflicts from business strategy: the territorial dimension. The proposal emphasizes that local development support prevents the generation of social conflicts. Finally, an experience in Peru, a country that has been characterized in recent years by high economic growth and also by the presence of social conflicts that have stopped entrepreneurship is analyzed.
