Expanding the Value of SAP Enterprise Support With SAP IT Infrastructure Management
SAP Enterprise Support customers can extend Application Lifecycle Management seamlessly with SAP IT Infrastructure Management.
SAP IT Infrastructure Management is a solution for acquiring and administrating all IT components in an infrastructure including PCs, printers, servers, routers and so on. Considerable advantages of this management solution include the agentless collection of the infrastructure data of all components within an IT landscape and being able to perform comprehensive monitoring without needing to install any agents. The collected data are stored in a so-called Configuration Management Database (CMDB) which provides the basis for IT service management in accordance with the ITIL. The integrated CMDB allows seamless and transparent infrastructure visibility in SAP and non-SAP environments. Complete system and device information on the relevant IT is furnished and correlated for incident and change management as well as for monitoring and alerting. The automatic detection of all active components and the normalization of data form the basis for complete IT service management.
The core functions of SAP IT Infrastructure Management are:
Automatic data acquisition (discovery) of the IT infrastructure
Allocation of the elements to the systems or processes
Monitoring and alerting for any network-enabled devices and systems
Illustrating all configuration items (CIs) in Incident and Service Management
Supporting the application lifecycle process
