Why a Cloud Environment Needs a CMDB
With the development and popularization of the cloud, enterprises' IT resources have become increasingly complex, necessitating unified management of various cloud services while supporting integration with traditional physical resources.
The CMDB integrates numerous cloud resources, IT services, as well as the relationships between user departments and personnel who use them, into a complete topology, becoming the foundation for IT operations and service management in hybrid cloud environments, and supporting the data foundation for FinOps, automated operations, ITIL, and DevOps.
How many cloud resources do we have?
Support and Influence
What is the exact quantity of cloud resources?
Where are these resources located—on which cloud, in which data center, on which device?
What is the current status of the resources, and which project is using them?
Which devices or resources actually support a particular business operation?   If a certain resource is changed, which businesses or users will be affected?   How can we support data usage scenarios, including automation, self-service, DevOps, and FinOps?
The relationship between resources
What is the relationship between cloud resources?   How can one determine how many VMs are on a physical machine? How many VMs are accessing the same storage?   How can one quickly understand the overall distribution and architecture of resources both in the cloud and on-premises?   How can rapid fault localization be achieved?
Introduction to Multi-Cloud CMDB Based on IaC
--Introduction to CMDB --Why Multi-Cloud Environments Need CMDB --CMDB Built on Multi-Cloud IaC --Case Demonstration
Supports scalability and real-time configuration data discovery
Unified centralized management of all IT resource information and configurations. Based on an infrastructure-as-code scalable model, any IT resource can be abstracted into an IaC component.
Supporting the growing cloud products and the rapidly scaling DevOps, compatible with hundreds of software, hardware, and cloud products.
Object-oriented infrastructure modeling, supporting encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and other features. Based on the Oasis TOSCA standard, integrating the IaC ecosystems such as Ansible, Terraform, Helm, and Heat.
Integrate business
on-premises assets and cloud resources
