Configuration Management Database
To effectively manage and improve your systems, you need to know exactly what assets are in your IT environment and have current, accurate configuration data. With an accurate configuration management database (CMDB), it's easy to understand your organization's IT environment, particularly in the areas of service impact analysis, asset management, compliance, and configuration management.

The ServiceNow® CMDB provides a single system of record for IT. When paired with ServiceNow Service Mapping, the CMDB becomes service‑aware—which enables your ServiceNow applications to be service‑aware as well. Now with your CMDB, you gain full visibility of your infrastructure and services, leading to more control of your environment and better decisions.
