CMDB Deployments in 2008: the Search for Value
Abstract: A great deal has changed in the two to three years since the term CMDB has become a part of IT’s common vernacular. Initiatives are further along, strategies are evolving, more vendor technologies are actively in deployment, and budgets are increasing. Even the definition of 'CMDB' has changed somewhat in adopters’ minds, both through growing interaction and familiarity with vendor-based technologies, as well as through ITIL v3 and the introduction of the Configuration Management System (CMS). However most deployments still suffer from politics, communication issues, and confusion, and many are still struggling to demonstrate value - at least in terms that senior IT executives will appreciate. This one-hour Webinar featuring EMA VP Dennis Drogseth will present the industry’s most extensive research on how CMDB System deployments are evolving in 2008 - with a focus on: * Where and why investments are being made * How and to what extent metrics are being applied * Recommendations for success * Regrets about what adopters would do differently If you would like a definitive picture of 'the state of the art' of CMDB adoption in 2008, along with some valuable insights into where CMDB deployments might be expected to go in 2009 and beyond, check out the replay today! |
