Understanding what MIS is all about 1a

After exploring the two different forms of the Software Development Life Cycle, I noticed some key differences between both waterfall and agile. For starters the waterfall model treats each phase as itemized events. Much like a natural waterfall, as you progress further and further, you cant go back up the waterfall! So as phase one completes and you proceed to the next, there is no backtracking, this helps improve the overall flow of the process. As for the agile model, the developers that have adopted this method understand that in this field specifically things can go of course easily. So because of this, the agile method has individual phases running at the same time, rather than following a step by step procedure. I think MIS is a way to gather, record, and distribute information in an efficient manner. Having used CRMs/ Apps/ etc. It is easy to see that they all revolve around DATA, and that is where MIS steps in to help organize that data.
For my normal day, a few parts of that system would include morning hygiene (i.e shower, brushing teeth, deodorant), travel (getting gas/driving/ cleaning windshield), Preparation for work ( prepare the calls/ schedule) and then I would say health (eating/ exercise), and then sleep!
The four core processes of designing UX (user experience) include user research, design, testing, and implementation. During the readings we came across some important acronyms which includes SDLC ( Software Development Life Cycle) like we talked about earlier explaining the difference between waterfall and agile. As for API ( Application Programming Interface) we spoke about this in class, and it was explained to me that Google maps was an example of an API because companies like Uber obviously did not map the world but they were able to use googles API for this app! UX simple enough stands for (User Experience) which seems to be the main focus of systems is to provide quality content. Finally we review ERP (Enterprise resource planning), which refers to another type of software that helps with organization and planning. A system is group of things working together towards a common goal, and there are three main components that play a role In that. Often referred to as IPO (Input, Process, Output) these three things all contribute to a system.
System analysis basically looks to achieve optimal production for either a procedure or business. Some times perceived as being a “problem-solving technique” Where you itemize all the different components of a system and see if each piece works well with each other! System analysis is an extremely broad term, as we have learned a “system” can refer a few things, so analyses can differ depending on the procedure or business. Im not too sure what the core of all systems is. If I had to give you my best answer it would be Data.
I believe MIS professionals are able to implement the right strategies to help improve overall production and efficiency. These people are constantly reviewing data, constructing it in an easy-to-understand way for businesses. MIS professionals are the best at taking data and making it easier to manage
