@Nigerian factor bit...
I would love to see their term of reference for the project or the project charter if they make it public so that you and I can properly argue it out based on the context of the document!

Looking at from another perspective, the government can build a center that integrate all the databases been generated left and right by agencies such as FRSC, Police, NMIC, unemployment database etc. This would enable them to combat terrorism and have comprehensive info about the citizenry effectively from a single point rather than the disparate databases been maintained by different agencies.

Exactly...Nice one anyway..cheers

I know guys that can take out data-centers as well (fair game to them). So to determined attackers, data-centers or not will not stop them from DDOSing your system or causing other havoc. Read about the data breach from the following companies: Mastercard, Visa, Target, JP Morgan, Sony, White house personnel office etc. I read about one company (Amazon) though, Anonymous group DDOS them and it did not work because their capacity kept on absorbing the attack.

Lets take it to a more recent context, the voters registration exercise in Nigeria that was conducted was done without the need to build a data-center and i have not heard of any data breach yet. The National database also comes to mind as well..

I still maintain that the use of data center would only be justifiable if the government's entire or critical IT infrastructures would be deployed on it in order to justify the costs of building one.

Alternatively the can get a virtual data-center at a cheaper price

We both know the voters registration exercise was not accurately captured, we had cases of multiple registrations and validity of the captured once are not 100%, if you look at the proposals of such projects, you will see the they have exorbitant ideologies but failed deliveries, and of cos, there was no time to verify the deliverables cos even registration was not fully concluded, with evidence of failed capture machines and compromised items.

The whole argument still balls down to the impossibility of the project to be delivered by zenox. We both know this.

NB: About you decision on (No Breach) with the voters card, what about the guys caught with voters cards, besides i participated in the exercise, i could print thousands if i want to and even replicate IDs. The screening of valid voters card they did still didnt capture all faulty once. This is Nigeria you know.

I beg to disagree with you. Building a data center just to house a database is a pure waste of money and resources. Except the scope of the project is going to be extended to accommodate the entire government IT infrastructure or host several other services such as databases, file servers, application servers, middleware etc then the I would push for a data-center.

Personally, it something i can set up using a physical server with access to the net, a front-end solution and a good database (MS SQL server or Oracle or MongoDB any other database that supports non structured data).

This is a project that they can get up and running in no time if they are serious. Even some of our university grads can set this up without sweat!

Fine but lets put the scope back to the functionality of the project at hand. Declaring the commencement of a data management project in a country that does not have a synchronized system of data exchange in all its parastatals. is it worth a try?

Anybody can setup a database to house data with your mentioned servers but you dont just setup such for sensitive employment verification structure that requires severe security measures. Am not talking about school project, NIMC projects or VIN. We are looking at millions of data's to be housed by a company that need to be audited and certified by Higher infosec standards e.g ISO27001, PCI-DSS etc.

Not just a baby database reform that some DDOS programs can take over in seconds.

enigma2007:
and why do you need a data center facility for that? Database can be hosted anywhere inasmuch they can secure it properly.

"Secure it Properly"

Zenox is no way secured or certified with any infosec standard, besides is it that cubicle they call datacenter you want to house millions of unemployed youths database?

Besides setting up such solution will require all employed and unemployed persons data, and records of places they are working with.

How many Nigerians want to say i work here or there.

Its a failed project my friend.

How do you build a database without a data-center facility....Partner with the right guys man...wise up
