Use Enterprise Architecture (formerly APM) to gain a comprehensive understanding of your organization's applications so you can identify
redundancies and decrease budgetary costs. The goal of this product view is to help you to understand how Enterprise Architecture key entities work with the core CSDM framework.  
Nota:  
If you do not use CSDM 4.0 or later versions, see the Rome documentation for CSDM. For implementing CSDM framework, see [Implementing the CSDM framework in stages](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=csdm-implementation-stages&version=australia&pubname=australia-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US).

## Enterprise Architecture home page {#apm-use-case-product-view__section_hk2_kvx_1wb}

The Enterprise Architecture home page organizes many of the CSDM tables used by Enterprise Architecture.

Business Portfolio

:   View the number of defined business capabilities that have been or will be assessed, and the number of business applications that support capabilities but are at-risk.

    For more information about using capability mapping to establish a configuration item (CI) relationship between the business capability and the business applications, see \[product\].

Information Portfolio

:   Capture the asset information as information objects. You can connect the information object to your business applications to create an application portfolio that you can use at any time.

    The information portfolio links to the following data:

    * Data Domains: Total number of records in the Data Domain table \[sn_apm_data_domain\].
    * Information Objects: Total number of records in the Information Object table \[cmdb_ci_information_object\].
    * Database Instances: Total number of records in the Database Instance table \[cmdb_ci_db_instance\].
    * Database Catalogs: Total number of records in the Database Catalog table \[cmdb_ci_db_catalog\].
    {#apm-use-case-product-view__ul_yy4_kgc_smb}

    For more information about the information portfolio and the information portfolio model, see \[product\].

Application Portfolio

:   Track the applications that support your business capabilities and effectively manage them to meet the goals of your organization. The portfolio provides a list of applications with information such as their category,
    manufacturer, and type. Select Applications to navigate to the list view of business applications in your organization.

    For more information about measuring the usability, cost, quality, performance, and risk of applications, see \[product\].

Technology Portfolio

:   Use metrics to measure the usability, cost, quality, performance, and risk of applications.

    For more information about technology portfolio management and how it relates to business applications, see [Manage the Technology Portfolio Management (TPM) in Enterprise Architecture Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/vZeIuVX2B9KIsaFKO508Vw "Technology Portfolio Management helps Enterprise Architects to manage technology life-cycle risks and technology life-cycle exceptions. Enterprise Architects can evaluate all their business applications and application services by accessing the discovered technologies and auditing information in the Enterprise Architecture Workspace.").
* **[Enterprise Architecture (formerly Application Portfolio Management) and CSDM tables](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/VlR95ld9J7YqcbnR41wtaA)**   
  Enterprise Architecture manages and uses CSDM tables. Several ServiceNow products benefit from and add value to Enterprise Architecture.
* **[Enterprise Architecture (formerly Application Portfolio Management) use case](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r21YMULYEVtCtU6~9q3rEA)**   
  Enterprise Architecture lets you define a single, version-agnostic entity that represents all instances, technologies, and data used for planning and reporting.
* **[Enterprise Architecture (formerly Application Portfolio Management) considerations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/k5pSFelbw3C0eQyHYP12Fw)**   
  Consider these points while implementing the CSDM framework.
