ITOM Visibility applications discover a variety of AWS resources and populate the relevant configuration item (CI) classes in the Configuration Management Database (CMDB) with their attributes.

ITOM Visibility solutions

ITOM Visibility can offer you comprehensive visibility into your organization's cloud infrastructure. Each application offers unique strengths and capabilities, and by comparing them you can gain holistic insights on their capabilities and benefits.
Table 1. ITOM Visibility solutions for discovering AWS
ITOM Visibility solution Overview Configuration
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns and Visibility Content Discovery patterns used by ITOM Visibility
  • You must update your store apps to the latest release version.
  • You must provide ITOM Visibility with access permissions. For more information, see Set up AWS service accounts
Service Graph Connector for AWS Service Graph Connector for AWS Configure Service Graph Connector for AWS using the guided setup
Note:

The CI class, in most cases, is applicable to both solutions. If it's not applicable to one of the solutions, the solution is marked "N/A".
