Deliverable: Word document of 2 pages, APA format (excludes APA cover page and abstract; include reference page as applicable)

Each GiGi’s store has a small network of 20 client workstations and a Windows Server 2012 R2 on site. Seven of those workstations are inside the gas station convenience stores and are used by the cashiers to complete customer orders. Three of the workstations are used by the manager and the management staff, and the rest are in the gyro kitchen for the food preparation’s staff.

Your job for this unit is to take into consideration a future expansion of GiGi’s and what requirements their new servers would need.

• Currently, there is only one GiGi’s location. In the near future, GiGi’s will open many other stores across the South.

    • What key points should be taken into consideration in any system expansion?
• The manager has claimed he wants partitions and volumes to be in place on the future server.
  • What are partitions and volumes? How are they used?
  • Specifically, explain how the store could use both.
• Describe 3 specific server security features.
  • Which kind of security should GiGi’s incorporate? Why?
