It’s all about the CMIS - What is a CMIS?(1 of 9)

Formally referred to as the Capacity Management Information System (CMIS),  and considered a subset of the Configuration Management System (CMS), it is unlikely to be one physical database and more likely to be a number of logical databases that store capacity and performance related data.  It is:

·       The Cornerstone/Multiple Databases

·       Considered a “CMDB” within CMS
Typically data such as utilizations, financial and business statistics with additional relationship information is being provided by the CMS.
The principles are the same, except we now have an “Information System” that is considered a Configuration Management DB within the CMS.
The CMIS and CMS are part of a larger Service Knowledge Management System (SKMS) which is primarily about getting the right data to the right people or group, with an emphasis on refining the bulk of information into what’s important for a particular person/group.
It's just a database, right? I'll be answering that question on Wednesday.
In the meantime take a look at our webinar schedule, we've got some great topics lined up for you over the next few months
