transactions is to be provided. The sensitive information should have transaction logs, which will

Page 36 / 277

Page 37: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

capture the pre-image and post-image of data modifications. Information regarding the users

carrying out the sensitive transactions should be captured to ensure accountability at every process

level.

14.3 AvailabilityAll the components of the system must provide adequate redundancy to ensure high availability of

all the modules in the applications. Designing for availability assumes that systems will fail, and

therefore the systems must be configured to mask and recover from component or server failures

with the minimum application outage.

The application should be available for 99.9% of the planned up-time. The critical components

should be identified and proper failover mechanism should be adopted.

The system will be available to users 24 X7 throughout the year depending on the following

assumptions:

1. Web and Application servers are up and running.2. Database server is up and running.3. No locks on the database.4. No. of user will be in defined limit.5. No upgrade activity is scheduled.6. No network latency reported.7. No failure reported with hardware, infrastructure (This also includes power) or network.

14.4 System ScalabilityApplication Scalability is the ability of an application to handle increased processing demand

without requiring architectural changes. Increase in customer expectations and dynamic usage

patterns are posing new demands of applications.

The application will be designed in a way that it can be made scalable to handle increased user

demand in the future, within defined limits.

Following are the ways, application can be made scalable:

1. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)2. Hardware3. SAN boxes for storage4. Load Balancers5. Server pooling6. Better Garbage collection of unused object7. Role wise restricted functionality and data

Scalability and performance of the application will be ensured while load and stress testing. All the

benchmark data will be provided during performance testing.

Page 37 / 277

Page 38: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Following parameters should be considered in the performance analysis of the system, in a standard

environment.

1. System response time i.e. page loading, form submission &validation.2. Response time for Advanced search 3. Access time for Regular data 4. Access time for Archived data

The system should support concurrent accessibility to the application provided infrastructure and

network availability as required.

14.5 Data IntegrityData integrity refers to maintaining and assuring the accuracy and consistency of data over its entire

life-cycle. The proposed system should incorporate integrity assurance techniques like RAID,

mirroring, check summing etc.

14.6 SecurityThe system must provide clearance levels for the information offered, through means of strict and

configurable access rights. The role-based security model will offer the ability to define and manage

permissions that can be given to a group of users determining their rights on accessing and editing

of data with the exception of special authorization cases. There should also be an option to enable

full and transparent data encryption.

The system must also offer the ability to set and manage user permissions in the system's different

modules. There should be detailed procedures for keeping backups for data integrity.

The applications must support:

User access control of the system, application, entries, database and file levels. Secure managing, entry and encryption of all access passwords. Catalogue creation of authorized persons with access permissions and the authentication

procedure. Single sign-on for all subsystems. Central user management and permissions system. Permissions control in the operating system, database and application levels. Data integrity checking system. Digital signatures and PKI infrastructure. Encryption and data transfer over secure networks. Event logging.

Security is fundamentally about protecting assets, risk management and implementing effective

countermeasures. The proposed e-Governance system should support multi-level security by

providing securities in Network layer& Deployment layer, network layer, application layer and

Page 38 / 277

Page 39: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Physical Security and Access.

a) Network layer& Deployment layer security

Network security vulnerabilities are among the first threats to any Internet-facing or intranet-facing

application server. The system should address network segmentation; Transmission Control

Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stacks hardening and the use of firewalls for host protection.

The network security vulnerabilities can be reduced through the use of:

De-Militarized Zone (DMZ):-In the computer network world, a DMZ is a part of a

network separated from other systems by a Firewall which allows only certain types of

network traffic to enter or leave. A DMZ or perimeter network is a network area (a sub

network) that sits between an organization's internal network and an external network,

usually the Internet. For example, Public web servers might be placed in such a DMZ.

With the DMZ approach, large companies with complex e-commerce Internet and extranet

applications may have a two-tiered approach to firewall security. The point of a DMZ is

that connections from the internal and the external network to the DMZ are permitted,

whereas connections from the DMZ are only permitted to the external network---hosts in

the DMZ may not connect to the internal network. This allows the DMZ's hosts to provide

services to the external network while protecting the internal network in case intruders

compromise a host in the DMZ.

Firewalls: - The Firewall isolates TDB internal network from larger Internet, allowing

some packets to pass, blocking others. Two types of firewalls that can be used are packet

filter and application gateways. The implementation of firewall will prevent denial of

service attacks, prevent illegal modification/access of internal data and allow only

authorized access to the inside network (set of authenticated users/hosts). Implement

firewalls that support proxy servers and/or state-full inspection instead of simple packet-

filtering solutions. Use a firewall that supports a security paradigm in which you can deny

all services except those explicitly permitted. A dual-homed or multi-homed firewall

solution implementation will be better as this architecture provides the greatest level of

security and helps to prevent unauthorized users from bypassing the firewall security.

IPsec: - Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a technology protocol suite for securing

Internet Protocol communications by authenticating and/or encrypting each IP packet of a

communication session. IPSec should be used in e-Governance system to secure the

Page 39 / 277

Page 40: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

communication channel between the Web server and the application server, and between

the application server and the database server. In IPsec protocol the Authentication Header

(AH) protocol provides source authentication and data integrity and the Encapsulation

Security Payload (ESP) protocol provides data integrity and secrecy.

Secure Electronic Transactions (SET): - In order to meet the business requirements of

the e - Governance system like on-line Vazhipadu payment etc, the system should

provide a secure means of electronic transaction. To provide the desired security

measurements the system should adhere to Secure Electronic

Transaction (SET) communications protocol standard for securing credit card

transactions over insecure networks, specifically, the Internet. SET will provide security

at three levels that includes Devotee, TDB and bank where account of TDB is

maintained.

VPN: - A VPN creates a secure communication channel from which Internet users can

safely access the applications hosted in the Datacenter. VPNs can be based on the IPSec or

SSL. Providing a VPN solution will mitigate threats and attacks while maintaining privacy

through security procedures such as encryption and tunneling protocols, but at a much

lower cost.

b) Application Layer Security

The application layer communication is a very weak link in terms of security because

that the application layer supports many protocols which provide many vulnerabilities

and access points for attackers. The design, development and implementation of the e -

Governance system should focus on the critical areas where the correct approach is

essential and where mistakes are often made. The system should try to avoid and

prevent application vulnerability through input validation, authentication, authorization,

parameterized stored procedures to prevent SQL injection attacks, filter input

parameters for special characters and encode output based on inputs for avoiding cross-

site scripting, configuration management, session management, limits the number of

requests the server will serve to prevent denial of service, cryptography, parameter

manipulation through input string encoding and handling cookies and HTTP headers ,

exception management, and auditing and logging considerations. Use Internet Protocol

Security (IPSec) or SSL to secure the communication.

Use Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) SSL to secure the communication.

c) Physical security and access

In addition to the monitoring of security at application, network and deployment layers,

the physical security of the Data centre must take into account. The Data centre should

be equipped with multiple security systems. Passage into and out of the facility should

be controlled by card or biometric access systems. All security systems should be

monitored 24/7 and activities logged both onsite and at a remote location. All alarms

should specify the exact location of the fault so time is not wasted searching for the

source of the problem. The physical security of the Data centre environment should

range from the server being placed in a secure room under lock and key, along with

other equipment, to being in a secured alarmed cage, isolated from other computers,

monitored continuously by Closed Circuit Television (CCTV).

Implementing security measurements are only a part of the solution. Another key

concern should be on vigilance. The e-Governance system should

Monitor system's event logs. Logs should be carefully monitored so that repeated

attempts to log into the system or for excessive requests being made against Web server

will be noticed and can take percussive measures.

Continually keep the application server up to date with the latest security updates.

Provide a good antivirus solution.

Use of automated tools for application vulnerability detection.

Adhere to security protocols and certificates.

f) Usability

System usability is the extent to which users can access the functionalities with

effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction to achieve specific goals. Following are the

main features necessary for ease of use

The relevant services are available to all stakeholders of CTDB The provision of proper documentation tools in work desk. The ease of navigation in moving from page to page The provision of standard fonts The support for multilingual operations The UI should be compatible for web browsers and mobile displays The provision of on-line help

g) Maintainability

This section discusses the issues affecting the maintenance of the application software system.

Maintenance of software systems is required for two reasons:

To correct the faults which only manifest themselves after the system has become

operational. To modify or enhance the functionality of the system.

The ability to maintain software is greatly enhanced if it is well designed and well written. To

Page 43 / 277

Page 44: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

facilitate this, the software design methodology as per industry best practices would be followed.

The principal characteristics of the software developed by this methodology are:

Modular design. Each module has high internal cohesion, i.e. its components are

closely related. The relationship between modules has low coupling, i.e. the modules

are as independent as is practical. Layered design. The principles of information hiding and data abstraction are

applied to the design of the software. Documentation. The proper documentation of all the details in the process of design for

future reference.

The ability to maintain software is also enhanced if detailed software documentation is available.

Documentation will be produced for the Application software in accordance with standard

guidelines.

h) Portability

Portability is one of the key concepts of high-level programming. Portability is the software code

base feature to be able to reuse the existing code instead of creating new code when

moving software from an environment to another. The pre-requirement for portability is the

generalized abstraction between the application logic and system interfaces. When one is

targeting several platforms with the same application, portability is the key issue for

development cost reduction. The developed application should be platform independent.

For the CTDB application portability will be achieved by:

Installed .war/.cs/resource/configuration files may be transferred to another server The program may be reinstalled (from the distribution files) on another server.

I) Interoperability

Interoperability is the capabilities to communicate, execute programs, or transfer data among

various functional units in a manner that requires the user to have little or no knowledge of the

unique characteristics of those units. In CTDB application “Web Service” would be implemented to

achieve this.

Web Service is spearheading the interoperability initiative in the market. Web Service exposes

useful functionality through industry standard protocols i.e. SOAP over HTTP. Because Web

Page 44 / 277

Page 45: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Services are standard based and platform independent, they provide a natural fit when it comes to

getting applications on different platforms to interoperate with each other.

Web Service contains useful functionality exposed via standard protocols and the same is available

in detail in an XML file called Web Service Description Language (WSDL). WSDL is enough to

build a client application which interacts with a web service.

j) Quality Assurance

The following will be listed for quality plan. Lists all applicable standards/practices applied during the software process and any

metrics to be collected as part of the software engineering work.

Code, designs, specifications, test plans, standards, etc. can all be reviewed.

Review type Principal purpose

Design or program inspections

To detect detailed errors in the requirements, design or code.A checklist of possible error should drive their view.

Progress reviews To provide information for management about the overall progress of the project. This is both a process and a product review and is concerned with costs, plans and schedules.

Quality reviews To carry out a technical analysis of product components or documentation to find mismatches between the specificationand the component design, code or documentation and to ensure that defined quality standards have been followed.

14.7 Software System Architecture

The ‘User’ Layer: This layer forms the internal departmental users accessing the applications overInternet or through the Network. Role based access would be defined for the internal users forhaving accessibility to the respective application modules, such as HRMS, which would beaccessed by all the TDB Officers but higher authorities would essentially be accessing reportingmodules which would help them in decision making and monitoring the overall functioning atvarious levels. Integrated database structure would ensure a one point stop search available to all theTemple Administration units. The ‘Data’ Layer: The overall solution would be based on a hybrid architecture comprising ofcentrally located databases at Data Centre as central repository and locally deployed databases atother Temple units. All the proposed applications would be able to function in an offline mode andon availability of connectivity, data would automatically replicate with the central repository inData Centre. This approach would cater to the functionalities of all the key processes and functionsperformed at Temple level and would also allow the users to have an access to the central repositoryfor comprehensive information as when required. It is recommended that the State Data Centre(SDC) should be the preferred to Third Party Data Centre option mainly on account of thefollowing: The specialized skills needed to manage a data-centre (such as security access management

through multiple delivery channels, data encryption, storage management, databaseadministration, etc.) are already being provided for at the SDC. To replicate, maintain andcontinuously upgrade these skills at a Department level would be extremely difficult, timeconsuming and waste of effort and resources.

Page 46 / 277

Page 47: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Cost effective option as the IT infrastructure investments would be required only for enhancing

the capacity of SDC (e.g. additional servers, Storage capacity, upgraded connectivity, etc.).

Networking: The overall networking solution would be based on a combination of Leased line,VPN over Broadband and Kerala SWAN (i.e. the State Wide Area Network established by the StateGovernment) ensuring optimum uptime at all the desired locations. The ‘Application’ Layer represents categories of modules, i.e. modules proposed for the CTDBproject. These modules will communicate with each other by sharing of data with one another, or bycoordinating an activity between two or more services. Users can easily access solution componentshaving a single sign-on facility either through internet or through KSWAN. All the modules wouldbe supported with Business Intelligence/ Data Mining tools coupled with Bi-lingual support, e-Payment gateway and workflow engine. The 'Service Delivery’ Layer represents the different modes/media of service delivery, whichwould be used for availing/accessing the services of TDB. Services would be primarily providedinternet, Mobile and SMS.

14.8 Deployment ArchitectureDeployment methodology is another major design concern while rafting the overall architecture. Byconsidering the possible deployment scenarios, a situation where the application cannot be deployedsuccessfully, or fails to perform to its design requirements due to any technical infrastructurelimitations, can be prevented. To run the application successfully on the network Web Server,Application Server, Database Server etc. will be required. A server for mail will be hosted in DC formail and messaging solution. Some other servers like Application Server, Database Server,Directory Server, Management Server etc will also be hosted for their different purposes. Thespecification of the servers shall be designed to ensure high availability of servers (clustering) at thecentral site. All the major servers would be configured in such a way that there is no single point offailure. The option of having clustered servers is to allow for redundancy and load sharing for bothdatabase management and applications.The following are the description of major servers proposed at the Data centre

Application Server & Web-server Database Server Mailing & Messaging Server

20.6.7.1 Purchase

There are three methods of purchase based on value of purchase or the Probable Amount ofContract (PAC) for which the purchase is going to be settled with the supplier.

1. Direct Purchase2. Quotation3. Tender

Direct PurchaseTenders/Quotations need not be obtained in the cases where Purchase amount is very small.

Quotation Quotation may be invited if the estimated value of the store is below some particular value.

Page 115 / 277

Page 116: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Publicity of notice is not mandatory. Obtaining quotation by local inquiry is sufficient.

Tender Tenders should be invited if the estimated value of the stores to be purchased is some particular value or above. Tenders are of three kinds.

1. Open Tender2. Limited Tender, and3. Single Tender

The open tender system is an invitation to tender by public advertisement. This should be usedas a general rule and must be adopted, subject to the exceptions 2 mentioned below wheneverthe estimated value of the contract is some particular value or more. In all cases of Open Tenderit is essential that wide publicity is given to the Tender notification. Open tender need not beinvited in the following circumstances

1. When it is not in the public interest to call for tender by advertisement.2. When there is serious risk or inconvenience or loss to public service by arranging the

purchase by open tender3. When the articles are urgently required.4. In the case of special manufacture by particular agencies and patent articles. In the above

cases the purchasing officer must place on record the nature of the urgency and the reasonfor deviation from the open tender system.

Limited Tender system may be adopted whenever the above exceptions 1, 2 &3 under open tender exist.

Single Tender System may be adopted

1. When the articles required are of a proprietary character.

2. When owing to greater promptitude of supplies by particular agencies or the specialmanufacture of some articles by certain firms, substantial economy is possible by deviatingfrom the tender system. In such cases purchase direct from the firms or agencies concernedafter negotiation. This is called Negotiated Contract.

Rate and Running ContractIn the case of articles which cannot be stocked conveniently in the departmental store with safetyand convenience, the system of Running Contract should be adopted.

A Running Contract is a contract for the supply of an approximate quantity of store at a specifiedprice during a certain period. The purchaser has the right to take about 25% over or below theapproximate quantity mentioned in the contract. Usually 75% of the contracted quantity should betaken before the expiry of the contract. Dietary article, firewood, charcoal etc. comes underRunning Contract.

Rate Contract is a contract for the supply of store at a specified rate during the period covered bythe contract. No quantities are usually mentioned in the contract and the contractor is bound toaccept any order which may be placed upon him at the rates specified within the contract period.Steel furniture, photo copier, computers, fax machines etc. are some of the items coming underrate contract. Rate contracts are settled by the Stores Purchase Department only.

17 Management of Designation

20.10.3 File Management System

It is observed that the basic work of administration departments can be summarized as placing arequest by one person or a body and approving that request by another person or body. Usually therequest or any query submitted becomes a file which is circulated across its respective sections andfinally an action is taken for that file which then becomes a closed file. The same procedure isbehind RTI filing also. So the crux is the implementation of an efficient file and information flowsystem.

In order to create a file flow hierarchy a user in the system should have a role that defines thedomain of his activities. It would not be an efficient idea to create an automated fixed file flowhierarchy implemented in the software itself since the rules regarding the request and approvalchanges time and again. So a better adapted idea is to allow the system administrator to set up therules of file flow hierarchy and to set the role of each user as per the orders issued by the competentauthority.

Details of existing system for File Flow Management : The tapal/Postal section receives a requestfrom a department or a person. The tapal official redirects the request to its corresponding sectionafter entering it in inward register. A valid request becomes a file in that section .The file can beprocessed there itself or may be forwarded to higher officials (with any comments if needed) withrespect to the authority delegated to the official. The file may go through many sections whichdepends on case to case. Each section officer maintains a register to record the details of filesreceived at his end say time and date of receipt, subject, status, relevance etc. of the received file.

The established system enables a systematic flow and processing of requests. But file trackingbecomes a cumbersome task and the transparency involved is almost nil. The applicant is not ableto get the status of his request. Files can be kept pending in one section without the knowledge of asuperior official until an issue rises up. A staff is not able to search the list of files based on anycriteria. This results in the poor performance of the office, wastage of time for productive work.

20.10.4 Tappal Management

Now there is no centralized inward tappal system in TDB. Each section handles its own inwardfiles. But despatch is centralized. Inward deals with receiving of tappal and a file number isassigned to all incoming letters, parcels etc and forwards to staff concerned. The file may gothrough many sections which depend upon the case. Each section head maintains a register torecord the details of files received at his end say time and date of receipt. Despatch section dealswith the centralized despatch of letters received. But file tracking becomes a cumbersome task andthe transparency is almost nil. The applicant is not able to get the status of his request. Files can bekept pending in one section without the knowledge of a superior official until an issue rises up. Astaff is not able to search the list of files based on any criteria. This results in the poor performanceof the office, wastage of time for productive work. The proposed system enables a systematic flowand processing of requests.

20.15.2 Hand Held Devices:

The system proposes the use of hand held devices for vazhipadu counter mechanism in sabarimala.Each hand held device will have a SIM to communicate to its application software via GPRS.During season time due to heavy rush it becomes very difficult for pilgrims as well as sabarimalaofficials to conduct and service vazhipadu properly. A person has to get the receipt of a vazhipadubefore standing in the queue to reach 'Nada' and conduct the vazhipadu. So if a pilgrim who doesnot know about this may stand in the queue before getting the receipt from vazhipadu counter. Sowhen he reaches 'Nada' , learning the fact that he has to get the receipt first, he will have to go tovazhipadu counter and then again stand in the queue. In order to eliminate these kinds of issues, useof hand held devices to request vazhipadu will be an efficient idea. So a TDB official can receiverequests from a pilgrim standing in the queue and can issue receipt at that moment itself afterreceiving the payment. The receipt details will be synchronised to the billing applicationperiodically via GPRS. The receipts generated by this device will have a separate identificationmechanism from typical Counter receipts and from other hand held billing device.

21 Annexure B - Infrastructure Requirement

21.1 Technology Architecture

Details of proposed IT solutions and its functional requirements for CTDB Project are covered in

this section. Based on the revenue and grade of the Temples, hardware requirement for each grade is

analyzed separately and list. The section also provides the details of the proposed Technology

Deployment Architecture with focus on how the solution will enable the TDB to provide services

through this consolidated suite of applications.

CTDB is deployed on a centralized architecture where various offices and temples of TDB connect

to the system through Data Centre located at Head Quarters.

21.2 Deployment Architecture

The proposed CTDB solution framework for the TDB is depicted in this section. The picture given

in this section is showing the key target areas of IT initiatives and their inter-relationships. This blue

print would be used as a communication tool that provides a snapshot of the overall goal/ direction

to be taken up for implementation of CTDB project. Stakeholder can easily understand the

functionalities of CTDB project by viewing this blueprint, without getting into the complex details

of the internal workings of each of these initiatives. All the modules depicted in the overall solution

framework and explained in detail as part of the Functional Requirement Specification – provides

the overall goal of the Devaswom Board.

Page 216 / 277

Page 217: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Figure 1: Overall Solution Blueprint

The ‘User’ Layer:This layer forms the internal users accessing the applications over a prioritized

virtual network overlaid on the Internet using KSWAN/Internet as a backbone. Role based access

would be defined for the internal users for having access to the respective application modules, such

Page 217 / 277

Page 218: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

as HRMS, which would be accessed by all the TDB Officers. Higher TDB authorities would

essentially be accessing reporting modules which would help them in decision making and

monitoring the overall activities at various levels. Integrated database structure would ensure a one

point stop search available to all the TDB units

The ‘Data’ Layer: The overall solution would be based on a hybrid architecture comprising of

centrally located databases at TDB Data Centre as central repository and locally deployed databases

at other TDB units (mainly TDB Temples). The system proposed for Temples would be able to

function in an offline mode, data would automatically replicate with the central repository in TDB

Data Centre in frequent intervals. This approach would cater to the functionalities of all the key

processes and functions performed at temple level and would also allow the users to have an access

to the central repository for comprehensive information as whenever required. The TDB Data

Centre would securely host the aforementioned information databases on servers specifically for

TDB. It is recommended that the TDB should focus mainly on the following:

The specialized skills needed to manage a data-centre (such as security access management

through multiple delivery channels, data encryption, storage management, database

administration, etc.). To replicate, maintain and continually upgrade these skills at a Board level

would be extremely difficult, time consuming and waste of effort and resources.

The IT infrastructure investments would be required for enhancing the capacity of DC (e.g.

Servers, Storage capacity, upgraded connectivity, etc.).

Networking: The overall networking solution would be based on a combination of Leased line,

VPN over Broadband and Kerala SWAN (i.e. the State Wide Area Network established by the State

Government) ensuring optimum uptime at all the desired locations.

The‘Application’ Layer represents the modules that were identified based on the FRS proposed by

the Board for computerization. These modules will communicate with each other by sharing data

with one another. Users can easily access solution components (CTDB Core Application Software

modules) having a single sign-on facility either through internet or through SWAN. All the modules

would be supported by Business Intelligence, Multi-lingual support, e-Payment gateway and

workflow engine.

Page 218 / 277

Page 219: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

The‘Service Delivery’ Layer represents the different modes/media of service delivery, which would

be used for availing/accessing the services of TDB. Services would be primarily provided through

over internet, Mobile, SMS etc.

21.5 Detailed Technical Specification

21.5.1 Networking

21.5.1.1 Core Router

A CoreRouter is a powerful router used in the core-zone (such as Data Centre) of large computer

networks. It deals with higher bandwidth of data and hence is faster compared with other routers in

a given network. The corerouter is installed at the data centre and manages the flow of data packets

within the network, often relying on lesser routers for connectivity. It is located in the central zone

of very large networks and processes network traffic for further processing by lower classes of

routers, such as edge routers. Edge Routers are located on the edge of a logical network and transfer

packets to other part of network(s). These routers can communicate with one another using

protocols such as Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and share

information about the best routes to take to reach a particular network component as well as

network destinations that are/have become unreachable.

This core router is used for routing different types of networks such as MPLS -VPN and WAN

networks.

future expansion and growth without replacing the router. Should have hardware based Encryption card Should have capability to learn the latest MPLS route information and

reflect the same to every router across the network. Bidder can fulfil therequirement by providing external hardware.

21.5.1.2 Load Balancer

Load Balancer allows the distribution of traffic across locations based on availability, performance,

and user-defined rules to provide business continuity and improved performance across globally

distributed locations.Connection multiplexing pools a large number of incoming TCP connection

requests from individual clients into a small number of connections to the application servers,

bringing big performance and capacity gains. Compresses HTTP content returned to the client to

speed content delivery and provide better user.Protecting your application infrastructure requires

deployment of multiple prevention tools. This is a real-time network and application attack

mitigation solution that protects the application infrastructure against network & application

downtime, application vulnerability exploitation, malware spread, information theft, web service

attacks and web defacement. This features the dual Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and Network

Address Translation (NAT) firewall with Denial of Service (DoS) attack protection to safeguard our

network.

21.5.1.3 Switch Unmanaged

Switch is providing MAC address based packet distribution within a network segment, similar to

postal delivery to houses located on both sides of a street. One or more switch is provided in each

TDB office depending on the number of PC terminals allotted for that office and number of ports

available for the switch. Wherever Boardal configurations necessitating partitioning of information

are needed (may be at TDB Headquarters), we may have VLAN settings made within a switch. For

this, we may need to have managed switch. Detailed specifications for switch is given below:

Disaster Recovery

A disaster recovery plan (DRP) is a comprehensive set of measures and procedures put into placewithin an organization to ensure that essential, mission critical resources and infrastructures aremaintained or backed up by alternatives during various stages of a disaster. A DRP must address three areas:

1. Prevention (pre-disaster): 2. Continuity (during a disaster): 3. Recovery (post-disaster):

Preparedness is the key. The planning process should minimize the disruption of operations andensure some level of organizational stability and an orderly recovery after a disaster.The Disaster Recovery methodology is described below.1. Obtain Top Management CommitmentTop management must support and be involved in the development of the disaster recoveryplanning process. Management should be responsible for coordinating the disaster recovery planand ensuring its effectiveness within the organization.

2. Establish a planning committeeA planning committee should be appointed to oversee the development and implementation of theplan. The planning committee should include representatives from all functional areas of theorganization and the planning process shall have scope of DRP in all 3 areas as listed above.3. Perform a risk assessmentThe planning committee should prepare a risk analysis and business impact analysis that includes arange of possible disasters, including natural, technical and human threats. Each functional area ofthe organization should be analyzed to determine the potential consequence and impact associatedwith several disaster scenarios.

4. Establish priorities for processing and operationsThe critical needs of each Board within the organization should be carefully evaluated in areas suchas functional operations, network deployment architecture, key personnel, information, processingsystems, service, documents and vital records, etc. 5. Determine Recovery Strategies

Page 246 / 277

Page 247: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

The most practical alternatives for processing in case of a disaster should be researched andevaluated. It is important to consider all aspects of the organization such as facilities, hardware,software, communications & connectivity, data files, end-user systems, other processing operations,etc.6. Perform Data CollectionAll critical data and documents should be properly backed up based on a defined strategy. Thisstrategy shall also lay down procedures for recovery as well as minimal operations.7. Organize and document a written planAn outline of the plan’s contents should be prepared to guide the development of the detailedprocedures. Top management should review and approve the proposed plan. The outline canultimately be used for the table of contents after final revision. 8. Develop testing criteria and proceduresIt is essential that the plan be thoroughly tested and evaluated on a regular basis (at least annually).Procedures to test the plan should be documented. The tests will provide the organization with theassurance that all necessary steps are included in the plan. 9. Test the PlanAfter testing procedures have been completed, an initial test of the plan should be performed byconducting a structured walk-through test. The test will provide additional information regardingany further steps that may need to be included, changes in procedures that are not effective, andother appropriate adjustments. Relevant periodic revision shall be effected to take care of changes inthe structural configuration of the network resources from time to time.10. Approve the planOnce the disaster recovery plan has been written and tested, the plan should be approved by topmanagement. It is top management’s ultimate responsibility that the organization has a documentedand tested plan.

22 Annexure C - Data Digitization &Migration

22.1 Objective of Data DigitizationA significant part of the envisioned benefits of CTDB would not be realized unless historical data relating to Temples, Staffs and TDB offices is digitized and made available through CTDB to the various stakeholders. The effective implementation and functioning of CTDB depends on the availability of historical data to assist TDB in the following ways:

To provide online access to historical data

To Search/Query the master database

Reporting functionality for statistical information’s

To manage huge volume of data in storage controlled access, Transfer and phase-out

In order to achieve the said purposes, the CTDB project would include a one-time effort to digitizeand digitize both electronic and non-electronic data to the master CTDB database. The historicaldata to be digitized includes data from all the temples and TDB Offices. Digitization of historicaldata would help TDB maximize benefits from features such as Search and Reporting.

Data entry help offers Data digitization services with scanning, archiving, indexing, digital imagingand analysis of ancient documents, manuscripts, paper documents, newspaper, text, sound, image orvoice. Data digitization services of Data entry help is performed with sophisticated infrastructure,high tech technology and skilled work force. Use data digitization services of Data Entry help tosafeguard or share corporate archives, newspapers, government records and documentation, librarycollections, or fragile books and documents. Data digitization services of Data entry help facilitatesclients to search across voluminous documents for obtaining a specific piece of information inquickest possible time.

22.2 Scope of Data DigitizationThe data is available both in electronic format and non electronic format. Electronic data if anyfrom TDB Offices would be digitized to the CTDB system. Non Electronic/Paper based dataaccounts for most of the historical data in TDB. This data resides in the form of paperfiles/records/registers and is maintained in various TDB Offices. These data need to be manuallyentered into the new system.

Digitization of historical data would help the TDB to maximize benefits from features such asSearch and Reporting. Digitization of historical data is covering the last 10 years. The historicaldata to be digitized includes data from all the TDB forms and other registers.

The table details the number of records which is required to be digitized to the new system.

Page 248 / 277

Page 249: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Sl. No. Registers/Form Name Number of records (approx)

1. Service book 5000

2. Pension Book 5000

3. Office/Court/Govt. Orders 1000

4. Mahassar 1000

1. Typical Data Digitization Model

Extract – read and gather data from source data store(s).

Source validation – confirm content and structure of extracted data.

Transformation and Integration - convert the extracted data from its previous form into the

target form. Transformation occurs by using rules or lookup tables or by combining the data

with other data.

Target validation – confirm content and structure of transformed data is valid for target.

Load - write the data into the target database.

2. Data Digitization Strategy for CTDB

Digitization of data from existing manual operations to the new System will include identificationof data digitization requirements, collection and digitization of user data, collection and digitization

Page 249 / 277

Page 250: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

of master data, and digitization of data from the legacy systems. The Software DevelopmentAgency will digitize data from the existing and external systems to the new system. The Datadigitization to be performed by the SDA shall be based on an appropriate data digitizationmethodology, prepared by Software Development Agency and approved by TDB. Though TDB isrequired to provide formal approval for the Strategy, it is the ultimate responsibility of SDA toensure that all the data sets that are required for operation of the agreed-upon user requirements aredigitized. Any corrections identified by TDB or any appointed agency, during Data QualityAssessment and Review, in the data digitized by SDA, shall be addressed by SDA at no additionalcost to TDB. It is responsibility of the SDA to ensure that the legacy TDB data into the new Systemis successfully completed.

Data Digitization Utility

The SDA shall provide the data digitization utility along with the forms and templates to capture thedata from the existing systems. This utility/application will have all the formats and tools to load thepaper data into TDB databases. This will enable SDA to digitize data from paper based systems to the new System’s databases.

This utility will be the first to be developed and tested while Software solution for TDB project is being developed by the Software Development Agency, so that it could be handed over to the TDB at the earliest, thereby enabling TDB to initiate their effort while rest of Software solution for TDB project is being developed.

22.3 Data Digitization Requirements

The followings are indicative requirements for performing:

Since there could be differences in the data as stored currently from the new system there

should be a mapping done between the source and target data models that should be

approved by TDB. Carry out the migration of legacy electronic data if any. Provide checklists to TDB for verification, including number of records, validations (where

possible), other controls / hash totals. Highlight errors, abnormalities and deviations in the

digitized data. Clean the data and incorporate corrections as proposed. Get final sign off from TDB for digitized data. At the end of migration, all the data for old cases and registers must be available in the new

system. Old data must be indexed and should be easily searchable by running database query.

Page 250 / 277

Page 251: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

22.4 Recommended Methodology for Data Digitization

Data digitization methodology will comprise of the steps explained as below. However, this is just aguideline for data digitization effort and the SDA will be required to devise its own detailed methodology and get it approved by TDB.Analysis:

Analysis of the legacy data and conversion, migration and transfer to the proposed new data base schema will be started during the scoping phase and shall take a parallel path during the design and development phase of the application. It will have the following steps:

Analyze the existing formats of data in lieu of the new proposed system to understand the

amount of the data and the applicability in the new System. Write a specification to create, transfer and digitize the data set. Document all exceptions, complex scenarios of the data. This phase will generate the specification for Data Take–On routines.

Transformation:

Transformation phase can be commenced after integration of testing phase. It will entail the

following steps:

Identify the fields, columns to be added/ deleted from the existing system. Identify the default values to be populated for all “not null” columns. Develop routines to create (Entry if any by data entry operators), digitize and convert the

data from hard copies, from old database (if any) and from computer records to the new

database. Develop test programs to check the digitized data from old database to the new database. Test the digitization programs using the snapshot of the production data. Tune the digitization programs and iterate the Test cycle. Validate digitized data using the application by running all the test cases. Test the success of the data take-on by doing system test.

Data Take–On:

Take–On phase will be initiated when the proposed solution is ready to be deployed. It will entail

the following steps:

Schedule data transfer of the computerized data that has been newly created by the data

entry operators based on the hard copy records. Schedule data transfer of the existing digital data in the proposed new format. Digitize the data from an old system (legacy) to the envisaged database. Test on the staging servers after the data take-on with testing routines. Deploy and rollout the system as per the project plan.

Data Quality Assessment

The data quality assessment is performed to gain a complete and thorough understanding of both source and target data. Understanding data will avoid unpredictable transformation results.

Systematic approach to gaining knowledge about data.

Page 251 / 277

Page 252: Request for Proposal for Design, Supply, Installation

Identify data anomalies.

Materially improve the quality of data content.

An Audit and Certification Agency (Third Party / Hired Agency) or TDB shall perform the Data Quality Assessment for the Data digitized by the Software Development Agency (SDA) to the system. The errors / gaps identified during the Data Quality Assessment shall be addressed by SDA before moving the data into production environment, which is a key milestone for Go-live of the solution.After moving the data into production environment, TDB with the help of SDA and/or Third Party will have to verify and confirm that all data have been digitized successfully into production environment.

22.5 Additional Guidelines for and Digitization SDA shall digitize the data at the implementation sites of TDB SDA shall formulate the “Data Digitization Strategy document” which will also include

internal quality assurance mechanism. This will be reviewed and signed–off by TDB prior to

commencement of data digitization. SDA shall incorporate all comments and suggestions of TDB in the Data digitization and

Digitization Strategy and process documents before obtaining sign–off from TDB. SDA shall perform mock data digitization tests to validate the conversion programs. SDA shall ensure complete data cleaning and validation for all data digitized from the

legacy systems to the new application. SDA shall validate the data before uploading the same to the production environment. SDA shall generate appropriate control reports before and after migration to ensure accuracy

and completeness of the data. SDA shall convey to TDB in advance, all the mandatory data fields required for functioning

of the proposed solution that are not available in the legacy systems and have to be obtained

by TDB. In the event TDB is unable to obtain all the mandatory fields as conveyed by SDA, SDA

shall suggest the most suitable workaround to TDB. SDA shall document the suggested

workaround and sign-off will be obtained from TDB for the suggested workaround. SDA shall develop data entry programs / applications that may be required for the purpose

of in order to capture data available with / obtained by TDB in non – electronic format. SDA shall conduct the acceptance testing and verify the completeness and accuracy of the

data digitized from the legacy systems to the proposed solution. TDB may, at its will, verify the test results provided by SDA.
