Case 3 Butterfly Ltd

Multiple Choice

Case 3 Butterfly Ltd. clothing store was started by Cara and her sister. They began the business as a small crafts store out of their parents' garage. It has since expanded to a store in the local mall. All of Butterfly Ltd.'s records up to this point have been kept in a series of databases on a laptop computer. Because the company is expanding so rapidly, Cara and her sister feel they need to convert their information system to a system that can hold more information and assist in data analysis. Because their information is so important to their business, and they do not have any backup information, Cara and her sister want to avoid the risks of a direct conversion from their old information system to the new information system. What will work best for their small system so they can constantly use the information as it is being converted?

A) pilot conversion
B) inline conversion
C) logical conversion
D) parallel conversion
