Wiki by backdoor project
Been tasked with building a system to monitor equipment (easy) and present the information to management in a understandable format (not easy) on a nothing buget.
Planning on making a system using the following:
Java script will pick up CSV files and generate graphs & charts,
Charts presented within a Wiki. MediaWiki seems to be good,
Wiki sat within Ubuntu server,
Hardware will most likely be a blagged 5yo dell server with 3Gb of RAM.
Never built a system like this before. Is there anything I should watch out for?
Backdoor project:- Keeping stakeholder involvement limited to what they'd like to see as a end result. They are not technical and have a tendency of throwing spanners into the works when they find something they don't understand. I know I should keep them involved as the project text books say, but I'd like this to succeed!
