SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The addendum also includes contract language necessary to minimize the costs of our CA, Inc. software by supporting Logical Partitions. Logical Partition is the division of a computer’s processors, memory, and storage into multiple sets of resources so that each set of resources can be operated independently with its own operating system and applications. Without Logical Partitions the software cost is based on the full capacity of the mainframe. The Logical Partition provides approximately a 75% reduction in cost for our CA, Inc.Software.
The use of this software is not limited to CSR. The software will be used to assist the Information Services staff meet the demands for ongoing reporting requirements for student information.
