Description
The Management Information Reporting and Data Analysis (MIRANDA) application comprises a suite of ORACLE Commercial Off-The-Shelf tools which collectively provide an Agile Data Analytics platform allowing the Inventory Accounting Enabling Team (IAET) to carry out monthly and Financial Year (FY) end reconciliation of accounts, enables the analysis of the financial data and allows the reporting of that analysis to a large community of stakeholders (IAET, Operating Centres (OCs), Project Teams and Front Line Commands).
MIRANDA is currently hosted on a dedicated Impact Level 3 infrastructure which is connected to the MOD Restricted LAN Interconnect (RLI) and accessed by an authorised group of Defence Information Infrastructure Future (DII (F)) users working on standard DII (F) or MoD NET User Access Devices (UADs).
The application, whilst accessed from DII (F) UADs over the RLI, is not an ATLAS DII (F) delivery and requires hosting outside of the DII (F) infrastructure boundary using an appropriate List-X hosting solution.
