CMDB data management

The integrity and health of the CMDB is essential for the various features that depend on the data in the CMDB. As the CMDB grows and infrastructures change, the CMDB can accumulate stale, duplicate, or outdated CIs and therefore no longer accurately reflect the IT infrastructure and applications in the organization.

The CMDB Data Manager is an essential tool where you can create, publish, and manage policies that reflect organizational needs for data management. The CMDB Data Manager is a comprehensive and integrated solution that scales to large CMDBs. It supports bulk management of CI life cycle operations such as deletion, archival, and attestation. Use the CMDB Data Manager to automate and govern CI life cycle operations to help maintain the CMDB in a healthy and efficient operational state.

Managing duplicate CIs is also an important data management task that helps maintain the health of the CMDB.
