Performance <\/strong><\/p>\n

A system achieves its designated functions with given constraints, for instance, time or accuracy.<\/p>\n

1.Processing time<\/p>\n

The interaction with server needs time to process, it is essential that the web app perform fast, the processing time should take under 3 seconds.<\/p>\n

2.Response time<\/p>\n

The Server should respond to a user\u2019s input or an external event in under 3 seconds.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Querying time<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The database should respond to a query in less than 1 second.<\/p>\n

    Capacity and Scalability<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Capacity is the resources available to the system and scalability is the capability of the system to make use of them.<\/p>\n

    4.Throughput<\/p>\n

    The server should be able to deal with 1000 queries per minute and capable of dealing with an increase of use or size of data.<\/p>\n

    5.Storage<\/p>\n

    All data should be stored on the server successfully and must prevent all capacity of available storage is filled up.<\/p>\n

    6.Growth Requirements<\/p>\n

    The storage should operate smoothly regardless it used by more users, keep upgrading the storage available for scale-up.<\/p>\n

    Availability<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The limit of the possibility that the system is running properly at the time.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Hours of operation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The system should be available 24\/7 unless it needs to take maintenance for database upgrade or a system backup.<\/p>\n

      8.Locations of operation<\/p>\n

      A location should not obstruct the quality of connection and less network restriction.<\/p>\n

      Maintainability<\/strong><\/p>\n

      The capability of the system being modified.<\/p>\n

      9.Architectural Standards<\/p>\n

      The base architecture should be constructed by accepted standards and design patterns.<\/p>\n

      10.Coding Standards<\/p>\n

      The system should use common coding styles, and the code should be built modularly.<\/p>\n

      Recoverability<\/strong><\/p>\n

      The ability for a system to recover from failure.<\/p>\n

      11.Restore time<\/p>\n

      In the event of failure, the system should be restored from the latest backup and the time should be within an hour.<\/p>\n

      12.Backup time<\/p>\n

      In order to keep the integrity of data, the should backup at least every hour and the time to process backup should be within one minute to minimize the disruption.<\/p>\n

      Security<\/strong><\/p>\n

      The ability of the system to avoid unauthorized usage while still providing its services o legitimate users.<\/p>\n

      13.Privacy<\/p>\n

      Users can remain at all times anonymously.<\/p>\n

      14.Authentication<\/p>\n

      Contents of the web app can only be seen by users logged in.<\/p>\n

      15.Encryption<\/p>\n

      The data stores on the database should be encrypted, to resist unauthorised use.<\/p>\n

      Mobility<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Mobility is about the Platform compatibility<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Browsers<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        The system should support the most common browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Chrome etc.<\/p>\n

        17.Moblie devices<\/p>\n

        The system should be operable on different mobile devices or tablet regardless of the screen sizes or internet connection speed.<\/p>\n
