_Asset management and service configuration

CMDB – configuration management database, is the part of IT infrastructure that collects, organizes and reflects all elements of your technology environment. From hardware to IT software, from networks to business processes, it's all under one virtual CMDB roof.

_Challenges

Implement effective asset and configuration management if your organization faces challenges such as:

Tak

Financial losses

As an organization grows and the number of resources increases, it becomes progressively difficult to effectively control and optimize assets without a single consolidated source of knowledge. Without efficient management, the organization becomes inefficient and exposed to unnecessary costs.

Tak

Compliance issues:

The lack of a central it asset management and configuration management system makes it difficult to monitor and maintain regulatory compliance. It also obstructs potential risk assessment.

Tak

Slowed incident response:

The absence of a unified source of configuration information makes it challenging to quickly locate and resolve situations, significantly prolonging incident response times. This inefficiency creates room for risk and downtime through time-consuming operations.

Tak

Lack of transparency and ineffective change management:

The absence of a consistent source of information on configuration elements makes it difficult to understand the full picture of the technology environment. Furthermore, dynamic changes in the IT environment, such as upgrades, expansions or resource transfers, can lead to chaos when there are no cmdb tools to control and track these changes.

Transparency and increased control over changes

Collected data provides a quick view of the relationships between resources, eliminating clutter and providing a clear picture of the IT environment, thereby enabling the organization to gain full control over the infrastructure. Tracking changes, hardware data history, recent upgrades or new functionality minimizes the risk of process irregularities and avoids chaos.

_The CMDB process through ITSM includes:

CMDB integration with IT service management:

We offer comprehensive integration of the Central Configuration Database (CMDB) with IT Service Management (ITSM), providing a robust foundation for the effective management of services and the IT domain within the organization.

Automatic detection and rapid response:

With the ability to integrate advanced ITSM monitoring functions , we are able to identify potential problems early. This capability empowers the DevOps team to respond promptly, reducing incident resolution time.

Recovery and improvement:

In the event of a major incident, IT Service Management becomes a crucial tool for swiftly recovering services and minimizing the impact on users. The reports generated provide valuable information for continuous process improvement, eliminating repetitive errors, and enhancing operational efficiency.

Change management:

The integration of ITSM with CMDB facilitates strategic management of changes to the IT infrastructure. Consolidated data from both systems enables precise planning and control of changes, which in turn can help improve risk assessment of disruptions and conflicts.
