| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立勤益科技大學 === 資訊工程系 === 100 === Combining the smart mobile device with the cloud service is a trend of modern Information technology. The cloud service platform described in this paper is a platform that provides many types of services and products. Therefore, the service providers do not need to build their own hardware such as the cloud server or ordering devices thus saving the hardware costs as well as the software maintenance costs by using the proposed cloud service platform. This paper examines a case study of food service in achievement display, in which the suppliers can use the cloud service platform to provide food and drinks to any user using a smart mobile device. This paper also examines a case using an Android Application running on smart mobile device to access data from the cloud service platform and provides services such as food and drink takeout, delivery, or reservation to users.
The cloud service platform developed in this paper is based on GAE technology to provide cloud service, cloud computing and the cloud storage. The server infrastructure is composed of a Web server and a datastore server.
The Web browser is used as an interface for food service providers to manage their products and process customer orders. The customer runs an Android App on smart mobile device to view menus, place orders, or make reservations. As the database is stored at the cloud, it is not necessary to store all the data in the mobile device. Only recent data that has been implemented is stored in the database of the mobile to enable the user to view data offline and to reduce the network traffic to the cloud server, thus improving system performance.
This research not only implements a Cloud Service Platform and an Android App but also provides a development procedure reference guide so that any project can follow the development steps from the beginning to the end. The analysis results learned from this research are also provided in this paper.
