ITSM Configuration Management
The HEAT ITSM Configuration Management module enables enterprise-class management of the configuration items (CIs) that make up the business services and IT infrastructure being supported. Configuration Management provides the tools needed to define, accurately identify, and report on CIs. Automated approval and assignment processes create efficiencies and cost savings. With real-time CI monitoring, the status of changes, requests for change, and verification of CI completeness and correctness are made transparent. The module employs a configuration management database (CMDB) that provides a single repository for all CIs. The Configuration Management module delivers best practices using dynamic object models to easily relate assets to owners and view their relationships.
