Product Overview

Welcome to the CMDB product of the Huayang Smart Operations Platform (hereafter referred to as Huayang CMDB).

Product Positioning​

Huayang CMDB is an enterprise-grade Configuration Management Database system for IT operations management. Starting from unified management of IT assets, applications, and their interdependencies, it builds comprehensive configuration visualization capabilities, helping organizations precisely control infrastructure and improve operational efficiency and decision-making quality.

Core Value​

  • Unified Data Model: Establish standardized IT asset descriptions through rich and flexible CI model definitions
  • Relationship Visualization: Intuitively display dependencies between CIs using topology diagrams
  • Flexible Querying: Build complex queries through Query Studio to meet various analysis needs
  • Customizable Views: Create custom asset views through CI List
  • Data-Driven: Dashboards based on real CI data provide real-time operational insights

Main Functional Modules​

Huayang CMDB provides complete CI lifecycle management:

  • Dashboard: Visualize key metrics and data, support custom dashboard creation
  • CI Directory: Browse all CIs by the type hierarchy of the CI model, support viewing details, topology relationships, and change history
  • CI List: Create custom list views to flexibly organize CI data
  • CI Type: Define the attributes, identification rules, and relationships of each type in the CI model
  • CI Relationship Type: Define the relationship types and constraints between types in the CI model
  • Option List: Manage option types, providing predefined values for CI attributes
  • Query Studio: Visually build Topology Query Language (TQL) queries, supporting complex topology queries

CI Management Capabilities​

  • Type Definition: Flexibly define attribute structures for CI types, supporting inheritance and composition
  • Relationship Modeling: Define dependencies, connections, and containment relationships between CIs
  • Auto-Identification: Automatically identify and merge CIs through identification rules
  • Change Tracking: Record all change history of CIs, supporting auditing and tracing
  • Batch Operations: Support batch export and deletion of CIs

Visualization and Analysis​

  • Topology Diagram: Display CIs and their relationships graphically
  • Dependency Analysis: Analyze dependencies between CIs through TQL queries, assess change impact
  • Multi-dimensional Query: Support querying CIs by type, attribute, relationship, and other dimensions
  • Custom Dashboard: Create personalized data visualization panels based on business needs

Typical Application Scenarios​

Asset Visualization​

Through CI Directory and topology diagram features, quickly understand the overall layout of IT infrastructure:

  • View the distribution and status of all servers
  • Understand dependencies between application systems
  • Analyze connection relationships of network devices

Change Management​

Through the CI change history feature, track all change records:

  • View the modification history of CIs
  • Trace change operators and timestamps
  • Assess change impact scope

Capacity Planning​

Through Query Studio and CI List, quickly obtain capacity data:

  • Count the number of CIs by type
  • Analyze resource usage
  • Provide data support for capacity planning

Troubleshooting​

Through CI dependency relationships, quickly locate the scope of fault impact:

  • View upstream dependencies of the faulty CI
  • Analyze downstream impact scope
  • Quickly find relevant contacts

System Features​

  • Flexible Data Model: Support custom CI types and attributes, adapting to different business needs
  • Powerful Relationship Management: Support complex relationship types such as many-to-many and self-referencing
  • Visual Topology Query: Through the proprietary Topology Query Language (TQL), cross-type query of CIs and their relationships, displayed intuitively in a graphical manner
  • Reliable Data Quality: Automatically merge and deduplicate through customizable identification rules, ensuring consistency and integrity during multi-source data entry
  • Intuitive User Interface: Modern design, simple and intuitive to operate
  • Multi-language Support: Support Chinese, English, and other languages
