Murphy,in looking to the future, set as a five-year technology strategy for the fleet the
development of fully redundant systems, where an authorized user could
access data anytime

systems, which had been developed separately for Celebrity and Royal Caribbean International. In
this environment, they would move to a package environment using packages such as PeopleSoft's
and JD Edwards OneWorld as quickly as possible. Maintaining legacy systems and code was just not
economically viable. At the same time, directory servers would be added and a major focus on
security would take place as a result of the explosion of online systems.
