Buenas prácticas de disponibilidad de información en el subsistema Sílabos 1.0.0 de la Dirección de Desarrollo Académico en la Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo.

Abstract

The objective of the work research was to apply good practice of availability in the syllabus system 1.0.0 of the Direction of Academic Development in the Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo because the institution possesses the capacity to have a subsystem which has a high availability to prevent unauthorized interruptions due to the current system has a 27,03% of availability. We did a research about good practice of high availability, for instance: the use of server cluster utilizing containers (Docker), load balancer and inverse proxy (Traefik), as well as tools for its management (Portainer, Visualizer), database cluster (Postgres) and automatic back-up copies (Rsnapshot). We did a maintenance using the methodology SCRUM along with IEEE 1219 to apply the good research practice in the syllabus system 1.0.0. resulting in the 1.1.0 version. The results showed 81.08% of availability and they allowed to determine that the availability was improved in 54,05%. We conclude that the good practice of availability influences positively on preventing unauthorized interruptions. It is recommended to do a study of high availability regarding reverse proxies to avoid conflicts with the Domain Name System (DNS).
