Integrations

You use the Integration Studio to set up integrations with external data repositories.

You can set up the following types of integrations:

  • Population. Integration that populates the CMDB with CI and relationship information.

  • Federation. Integration that retrieves CIs and relationships from an external repository whenever the data is requested in an ad hoc fashion.

  • Data Push. Integration that pushes CIs and relationships from the CMDB to an external data repository.

Each integration adapter supports certain types of integrations. For example, an integration adapter that supports both population and federation types can retrieve data periodically for storage within the CMDB or upon query time; both of these configurations can co-exist within a single integration.
