- Case Report on SBRU Summer Breaks 'R' Us (SBRU) represents an online travel service provider that books summer break trips to resorts for university students. Students have booked summer break trips for decades, but changes in technology have transformed the travel business in recent years.

About five years ago, Facebook was involved in a multimillion-dollar effort to move a terabyte of data from a near-capacity data center to a then new higher-capacity data warehouse. The project was scheduled to be completed in 100 days with no provision for any schedule delays. In Facebook terms, a terabyte is equivalent to 250 billion “Likes” on Facebook. The project had two phases, i.e., building and outfitting the new data warehouse, and then moving data to the warehouse. The new data warehouse was designed so the servers could handle four times as much data as the current servers, and the processors and software were upgraded as well. As a result, the new data warehouse could hold eight times more data than the current data center, and it could also move and manage data more efficiently.

People who own cabins near the lake or come to visit the local state park enjoy browsing through the town’s stores, where they pick up pottery, paintings, and Wish You Wood’s beautifully crafted wooden toys. For these shoppers, Wish You Wood is more than a store; it is a destination they associate with family and fun. The store’s owners, Russell and Vanessa Harris, personally select the toys from craftspeople around the world. They enjoy their regular customers but believe selling mostly to vacationers has limited the company’s growth. They decided that the lowest-cost way to expand would be to sell toys online.
