Answer to Question 1

A person who works in marketing needs to be able to assess the effectiveness of new
online ad programs. He or she wants an information system that will not only deliver ads over
the Web, but one that will also enable him or her to determine how frequently customers click on
those ads. In this case, determining click ratios in near real time will be very expensive; saving
the data in a batch and processing it some hours later will be much easier and cheaper.
If the user can manage with data that is a day or two old, the system will be easier and cheaper to
implement.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
