What are the useful IT asset management platforms?

Assets are typically financially defined resources that bring economic benefits to a business.For example, IT assets usually refer to servers, network equipment, storage equipment, security equipment, wind, fire, water and electricity equipment in an enterprise IT environment.

When enterprises build or purchase asset management tools, they often learn about the tools and concepts of CMDB. Generally speaking, the two have some overlap in the management object level, but the purpose and value of tool construction are still quite different., the comparison is as follows:

If we consider the main purpose of management tools is to build operation and maintenance master data for intelligent operation and maintenance platform for data consumption to ensure business continuity, then I think our CMDB should be able to solve your problem!

Jiawei Blue Whale CMDB Solution

Jiawei Blue Whale Configuration Management Center Software (CMDB) is a new generation of CMDB products for digital operation and maintenance of enterprises. We focus on the concept of establishing an enterprise metadata management platform centered on applications, with deep automatic discovery and seamless process linkage.Supported by the functions of flexible data consumption and intelligent data visualization, it helps enterprises to solve the problems of low efficiency, low accuracy, high delay and difficult consumption of data management, efficiently manage frequently changing IT assets, and provide IT operation and maintenance systems.Valid data support.

1) Product Highlights

1. Efficient and accurate data maintenance: Supports automatic collection, manual input, Excel import and other methods to input asset data, data storage supports approval and data compliance verification

2. Flexible and diverse data analysis: There are multiple built-in data analysis scenarios, such as data association analysis to help predict the impact of asset changes; automatic mining of "data islands" to ensure the integrity of CMDB asset dataCompliance

3. Simple and easy-to-use data report: Interactive data query, fool-like chart configuration, just two steps, the information you want to see "quickly appears", and a unified Dashboard is provided for centralized display,Support configuration decision scenarios

4. Clear and visible configuration topology: The asset association topology is automatically and quickly generated in 1 minute, and the current status of the application resource architecture is "at a glance"; supplemented by the flexible instance topology function, users can customize the generation and saveView multiple topologies at any time.

5. Fine and controllable configuration permissions: Provide basic permissions and attribute-level asset data permissions based on roles (permission templates), and support the smooth implementation of asset management with refined permission control.

6. Comprehensive in-depth configuration collection: Supports multiple discovery methods based on Agent, Agentless, and API, helping you to ensure the comprehensiveness and accuracy of assets

2) Application scenarios

1. Asset Data Maintenance:

Asset data maintenance is a high-cost, high-frequency asset management routine, we provide you with full-text search, cross-CI query and other diversified data query methods to help you quickly "find data".Naturally integrates automatic collection, operation and maintenance process products to help you ensure "data accuracy" from the perspectives of automation, labor and process.Ongoing property-level change operation auditing helps you quickly track issues and backtrack configurations.

2. Asset Data Report:

Traditional asset management products usually do not provide reporting tools or only provide built-in fixed reports. Asset managers often need to manually export data for statistics in Excel.We provide you with a "lightweight but not low-performance" report module, which supports in-depth analysis and statistics of data and associations in CMDB, and generates reports quickly.At the same time, a unified Dashboard page is provided, and users can centralize the generated charts for a unified layout to assist work reporting and configuration decision-making scenarios.

3. Asset visualization topology:

CMDB is a digital map of enterprise operation and maintenance objects. Invisible data is destined to be "cold".We provide you with powerful data visualization tools: when you use "application topology", you can quickly see what assets are under a department/organization from a management perspective?When you use "instance topology", you can "visualize" the data more freely, and what kind of topology is displayed depends entirely on your ideas and usage scenarios. As for aesthetics, layout, and presentation performance, don't worry, we allconsidered.

4. Asset Data Collection:

Take a database as an example, in an enterprise IT environment, database configuration information often has many types, differences and attributes to maintain.Configuration discovery provides built-in collection capabilities that are not limited to MySQL, Oracle, DB2, Sqlserver, MongoDB, etc. It supports the establishment of periodic tasks for data collection, and the collection results can be updated in real time in the CMDB after being approved by the administrator, ensuring the accuracy and timeliness of CMDB data.
