Configuration Management
Maintain configuration records and dependencies to support safer IT change.
Overview
Incomplete records held across separate tools make it difficult to establish a system's approved state or identify dependencies before a change. Growth in infrastructure, applications or cloud services can make this harder, while undocumented changes create configuration drift and fragmented history.
Configuration Management brings relevant item attributes and relationships into maintained records. Approved baselines can define expected states, and recorded changes link to affected items. Teams can use configuration information to trace history, understand dependencies and reduce reliance on individual knowledge.
