The business challenge for BMC Atrium Core
ITIL standardizes the processes that IT departments use to manage IT hardware and software, such as Problem Management, Incident Management, and Change Management. These standard processes ensure the availability of the critical IT services that sustain a business, like banking systems, ordering systems, and manufacturing systems. Additionally, ITIL Service Asset and Configuration Management (SACM) needs reliable data about components in the IT environment and needs to understand the impact to key business services when changes occur in that environment. For a large company, maintaining and managing information about thousands of pieces of hardware and software is difficult. Central to these ITIL processes is the configuration management database (CMDB). The data in the CMDB feeds the applications that perform ITIL processes.
