Mapping of CSDM and ArchiMate

Found ArchiMate mentioned only in a few posts so creating this new one. 
Does anyone know if there's been any mapping done between CSDM and ArchiMate where I guess the "external behavior elements (also called services)" would be a main common reference point. 
Maybe @Mark Bodman🙂 
I think it would be useful in explaining CSDM to Enterprise Architects, that might not be that interested in a data model from a specific vendor.

Thanks OP!
From Mark's video I understand that Blizzdesign is the origin of ArchiMate, correct? 
The article did add some valuable insights. 👍 It also says "For more detail, please read the forthcoming whitepaper from ServiceNow when it becomes available.
Do you know what whitepaper it refers to? 

1. Michael, to be clear Archimate was originated outside of Bizzdesign, Marc Lankhorst who managed the development of ArchiMate in 2002 -2003 joined Bizzdesign around 10 years ago. He is Archimate evangelist.

 

2. You wrote "Do you know what whitepaper it refers to? " I do not but very curious about this whitepaper. Hope Mark Bodman could find out and clarify the situation with this document

 

Perhaps one of the authors, @Dr Michelle Sup can tell which White Paper the Bizzdesign blog post from May 9 2022 refers to🙂 

Hi - yes, I have a mapping. The white paper is in still draft, but I can share the mapping with you. Please connect with me on linkedin and we can talk.

 

Dear Michele, I am also interested in the draft paper about the CSDM-ArchiMate mapping. In our organisation, we are currently evaluating the potential to use ServiceNow as the foundation Enterprise Architecture repository, placing a specialised EA tool on top of it (such as Bizzdesign or Avolution Abacus who both claim integration with the CSDM).

 

However, I cannot find you on LinkedIn. Can you please tell me how can I get in touch with you?
