cost benefit analysis, initial schedule, charter or project agreement | feasibility study |
defining the broad problem and identifying causes | systems analysis |
planning new system | system design |
what the user sees, defines database | logical design |

marclogic | noSQL Hadoop |
physical design specs translated into software | programming |
written description of system for users and tech staff | documentation |
tasks and schedules for training, conversion, testing. anticipating and dealing with resistence | implementation planning |
do this because IS usually not intuitively obvious | training |
