Automated Fingerprint Identification System Solution

The Vendor is required to provide automated fingerprint identification system solution (AFIS) with a scalable, highly available cloud-hosted environment that supports rigorous production and testing workflows while seamlessly integrating with the other state systems.
- AFIS containing millions of records, the digitization and indexing of unindexed hard-copy fingerprint cards, and the deployment of fully compatible hardware, workstations, and peripherals.
- AFIS provisioning, configuring, and maintaining a scalable cloud-hosted solution, storage, and networking resources dedicated to production and testing environments, and explain how you will establish these segregated environments.
- Explain your methodology for implementing dynamic resource scaling across all hosted cloud infrastructure layers to accommodate annual capacity growth without degrading application performance, throughput, or availability metrics.
- Process for scanning, indexing, and converting approximately two hundred fifty thousand unindexed hard-copy fingerprint cards, and explain how you will ensure data integrity and full search ability within criminal and applicant workflows.
- 24/7 operational monitoring protocols for the hosted environment to ensure immediate detection of performance degradation, security anomalies, or infrastructure failures.
