The Value of Standards-based CMDB Federation | 2009-04-01 | CA (Computer Associates) |
| SACM and CMS help an enterprise implement an overall strategy that aligns business and IT services accurately, with a minimum of resource investment, but to achieve those goals, a range of data sources must be integrated. Without an industry standard for integrating IT data sources, this integration is expensive, difficult to maintain, and unlikely to be effectively implemented.
