Architecture of Intranet systems


Intranet - an internal information system based on the technology of Internet, services Web, TCP / IP and HTTP communications protocols, and HTML pages. Intranet - a technology that allows an organization to define itself as a whole as an object or a group where everyone knows his role and all data streams are bound together, so every worker can get any information that he or she needs. In other words, Intranet is the "intelligence" of the organization. The ultimate goal of this intelligence is to organize your desktop for each employee (computer) with minimal cost, time wasting., the information withinthe organization is distributed across multiple computers and stored in a variety form of files, reports and e-mails. In fact, the method of access to all the information is not organized. Therefore, many organizations create intranet-network with internal Web-servers to facilitate their employees with access to comprehensive information. Through links with corporate databases, file servers, and document repositories Web-servers provide employees a variety of types of information through a single interface - a familiar Web-browser. First few pages are hypertext links to all kinds of documents and data. Usual Internet environment allows for interaction between different tools, and provides easy access to corporate resources, such as databasesthese features with easy to learn hypertext mark-up language HTML and graphic inserts, custom Intranet environment can be created in just a few weeks. As in most existing networks use some protocols of the stack TCP / IP, with the Intranet can run all employees. Moreover, the use of already implemented technologies allows companies to avoid significant investment in hardware and cabling. For example, a staff member was able to receive corporate information directly on your desktop, all you need to do - is to add client drivers for TCP / IP, Web browsers and other tools Internet. Intranet or may not have a direct connection to the Internet. In some cases, the access channel to the Internet brings additional problems, especially when working with confidential information. In most cases, however, the connection to the Internet increases the value of Intranet, because it provides access to Internet resources directly from the Web-page Intranet


Business use of intranet systems


Intranet - a helper tool to disseminate information, which is owned by the corporation, in the interactive mode. The Nestle Company could put a significant part of intranet documents that employees can access at any time, revieworders; views records of customers and together discuss new projects.

Intranet tools and its benefits


Most organizations use information, knowledge and intelligence to create products, services, provide education or entertainment. Information - is power. In the past, there were many problems. Or it was impossible to obtain reliable information, or could not make it in time. Now the information is directly on the desktop, regardless of platform or software. With aid of Intranet any user, on any level, can create information which makes the information reliable, because it comes straight from the source. user serves the information that can be read in any browser, and puts it on the server. This makes editing workflow within the organization.the following paragraphs Intranet network can be represented as the following tools:

1. Decision-making tool.brings together all the information in the organization. There is a single interactive interface that includes a convenient means of viewing, the standard query and search tools. Current traffic information portfolio, market trends, the results of communication with colleagues and business partners allows time to make responsible business decisions.

2. Instrument training.communication is instantaneous, then those who are responsible for decision-making, the ability to analyse business processes, business opportunities, and business goals faster. This is so that more employees can become producers of solutions. Projects are implemented more effectively. Communication needs to be included in any process whose work a little for the project. Requirements of customers registered and adhere to them. Developments happening in the field of public electronic data - much more quickly than through meetings, telephone calls and personal schedule. The company that manages the information in this way, learn all at once, at the same time improving and creating more knowledgeable organization.

Elements of traditional business marketing and commercial programs can be integrated in the medium Web, to create targeted marketing that meets diverse needs of customers and serves them in the sale and service. The result can be more profitable, long-term relationships. This interaction shifts the focus away from one-way information flow to the bilateral dialogue and cooperation, and from the mass market to market segments.

4. Tool of human resources.recent times there was a need to constantly rethink the nature of relations person-organization and person to person within it. Now each employee can immediately inform their decisions to transfer the experience to anyone. The power of the employee also creates a set of obligations for all members. Intranet can make completelyremeasured: infrastructure, policies, procedures, roles and responsibilities. To control and monitor the various documents, correspondence, reports, etc. Intranet network will be very useful. For example, a database with a Web interface allows you to track documents as they become available. Administrators and other staff members are able to collect links to these documents according to various criteria, for example, to find out what work was done for a particular client, documents relate to the project and what materials are relevant to a particular employee. This system may be useful especially in the case when an employee leaves the company, in the examination of the project or in the event of litigation (See appendix B)


Recommendations

·Commercial or confidential data is kept secure within the organization

·Emails remain private and may also be encrypted

·High bandwidth. No connection limits unlike the Internet

·Reliable. The company will have dedicated IT personnel to keep things running smoothly

·Information specifically tailored to the organization or staff's needs can be published (teach-ict, 2010)we will recommend the use of intranet system. Also, its recommended to establish security issues for intranet such as firewall, anti-virus, protection from DDoS of attacks and etc.

Many companies decide to hire an outside firm to run their intranet rather than do so themselves. This cuts down on the number of internal problems and potential disasters and gives management peace of mind to know that trained professionals are handling this often delicate situation. If this route is taken, it is important for management to keep some employees dedicated to intranet issues in case the relationship with the outside supplier does not end up working out (referenceforbusiness, 2013) .There are a lot IT companies who offer different intranet portals for example TopSBI intranet portal or IntraOffice which can be used for more complicated automatization or Nestle company CEO can use their services to establish their corporate portal.

Conclusion

research was dedicated to the use of intranet and intranet tools in business. Also it considers the features of Intranet technology, its advantages and disadvantages, so we can conclude that the Intranet - a convenient way to provide access to the documents of the organization. In Intranet users can work with Web browsers and interface does not require training in the use of special software. Developing intranets is simple and cost-effective. It provides many opportunities: the transfer of hypertext documents, e-mails, the use of newsgroups, file archives, works with databases. All this makes it a very useful intranet in organizations. Thus, the introduction of intranet technology in corporate networks - is an essential part of information.
