Information system
For the last decade, technology has changed the world. This has been achieved through the introduction of various aspect of technology. However, four component of information system, which play vital role in the society are hardware, software, database and network. These four components play a specific role for the growth of information system According to Hardcastle (2015), these components support each other for the operation of systems. Without either of the component system cannot operate and there would be no system. Therefore, a good system has database, network, hardware and software working collaborate to provide effective services. Hardware is the structure which supports operations of software. The software is installed in the hardware and therefore, computer or any other system cannot operate without software. Hardware is a physical component of systems such as computer, router and other system. Software is a program which is used to run a system and it is installed in the hardware.
It is important to consider components of information system when designing and installing system because each of the components needs to know what to do. Cordella (2006) stated each component of information system has specific functions and therefore, when designing a system it is important to determine the hardware required software, network and how the database will operate. It is also important for the accuracy of the system being designed. It is therefore, important to point that hardware, software, network and database operates in interchange and therefore, it is important to understand all the aspects of the components to derive a workable system.
