Why CMDBf matters
Here’s an excellent article from 2007 written by Marv Waschke of CA giving his thoughts on why CMDBf matters. He asserts that CMDBf is not a solution in search of a problem, and explains why it’s essential.
CA has been a key contributor in building up the CMDBf tools provided by the COSMOS project. In addition to tools that help you build management data repositories (MDRs) and federating CMDBs, COSMOS provides data visualization tools that are specifically developed for administration of MDRs and registration of configuration items (CIs) such as hardware and software. COSMOS also now includes an initial implementation of a reconciliation taxonomy that can be used by a federating CMDB to resolve data coming from disparate sources.
