Tips for Creating a "Business Service-Aware" Configuration Management Database Webinar Announced

Neebula provides best practices to improve upon appalling 1 percent success rate in building and maintaining a "Service-Aware" CMDB


NEW YORK, Nov. 7, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Neebula Systems, the leading provider of business-level service modeling, management, and automated full-stack discovery and dependency mapping solutions, announces a webinar on November 14 that will provide insight on improving the success rate for modeling services and populating a configuration management database (CMDB).

"We ask the question, 'is the Service-Aware CMDB dead' since typically only 1 to 2 percent of key business services in large IT organizations are modeled and populated into a CMDB," says Ariel Gordon, co-founder and vice president of products at Neebula. "Of course, this undermines the value of implementing a CMDB since it is intended as the central repository of information defining the components of IT infrastructure, known as Configuration Items (CIs), which enable delivery of business services."

The webinar will cover:

· Why so many service-aware CMDB initiatives fail, including a discussion of the processes, teams and tools needed to build and maintain a service-aware CMDB.

· The technological challenges that new, dynamic IT environments pose to a CMDB implementation.

· How to build effective service configuration models that deliver the value promised by the CMDB, including the following topics:

  o How to discover and maintain CI relationships while minimizing manual effort.

  o How to exploit the fully-populated service configuration models in the CMDB to achieve strategic business service management.

  o How to create and maintain service configuration models in a dynamic virtualized cloud environment.
