Discovery and Dependency Mapping

Discovery and Dependency Mapping allows organisations to automate the maintenance of business services views and dependencies. It provides the ability to map IT infrastructure to the logical application and business services that depend on it. It populates the organisations Configuration Management Database (CMDB) and provides the single version of truth, maintained regularly by identifying and populating the CMDB with new, changed or deleted servers or components on an ongoing basis.

The business service views, with their integration with the enterprise monitoring solutions, enables businesses to improve service impact analysis, change management and problem resolution processes.
