[ssr99]

Hi Team,

I am looking for difference between Horizontal discovery , Cloud discovery and Service graph connector(SGC).
Adv & Dis.
As per best practice which one to choose.
I have find the below video on YouTube.
Do we have any documentations related to below ServiceNow YouTub Video.

     Feature                      Cloud Discovery                                      Service Graph Connector

Data Flow	Pull-based (via API)	Push-based (via Azure services)
Setup	Requires credentials and schedules	Uses IntegrationHub ETL and Azure configs
Best For	Real-time discovery, flexible use cases	Clean, scalable Azure-native integration
Relationships	Limited, may need customization	Rich and accurate from source

Cloud Discovery-
You want real-time, scheduled scanning of your Azure infrastructure to populate or maintain your CMDB.

Service Graph Connector for Azure -
You prefer Azure to push or share normalized inventory data into ServiceNow CMDB with less setup and more accuracy in relationships.
