CASE STUDY-3 “SERVER DOWNTIME”

1. Construct a frequency distribution showing the number of times during the month that
the server was down for each downtime cause category.

DOWNTIME CAUSE FREQUENCY

Lockups 6

Memory errors 10

Weekly virus scan 4

Slow startup 1

Manual restart 1

5. Short report:
Because EDS is in the information technology field, it is conceivable that mistakes will arise
due to the internet and technology. There are five types of problems that have been
encountered in the EDS company thus far. Some of the issues are lockups, memory errors,
weekly virus scans, delayed starting, and manual re-start.
 If we look at the frequency distribution chart, we can see that memory is the most
bothersome of all. It has been done ten times in the last month. The lockups issue appeared
six times after that.
The problem that lasts 30 to 40 minutes has a frequency of 6, according to the histogram
chart. It suggests that the majority of issues endure 30 to 40 minutes. The pie chart
demonstrates that the lockups issue has taken a long time to resolve. It accounts for up to
44% of overall downtime. Memory problems were responsible for 38% of the downtime after
that.
Finally, if we come to a conclusion, they must address the memory problems and lockups
issue.
It's because they're both causing problems with EDS.

A SHORT REPORT

If we look at the above graphs, we can do an analysis of the business very well. First, if we look
at the line chart that shows the total consumption of apples in the United States. We can see
that overall consumption is increasing over the years in the United States. It means that they
should focus more on production as demand will increase in the coming years as well.
If we look at the second chart that shows the annual consumption of fresh apples and
processed apples. So, it is very clear from the chart that the consumers in the United States are
prefers processed apples more rather than fresh apples. We can conclude from this that Yakima
Apples, Inc should focus more on processed apples in order to meet the demand of consumers.

The third chart is showing the distribution of processed apples in different forms. If we look at it
closely, so it is showing that most consumers are preferring juice over other forms. Also, they
prefer canned ones as well. So, it is very easy from the graphs and related data that they should
focus more on the processed apples and juices in it.

The last histogram is also showing that per capita consumption in pounds per year lies more in
the range of 40 to 50. It means that consumption is increasing day by day. Now is the time for
Yakima Apples, Inc to put efforts into the business and make proper decisions as per the data
and behavior of charts.
