Original Press Release:
GridApp Systems Announces First Configuration Management Database (CMDB) for Heterogeneous Database Environments
GridApp's Clarity Database Automation Software Provides Key Requirement for Successful CMDB Strategy
NEW YORK, March 13 - GridApp Systems, Inc. (http://www.gridapp.com/), the leading provider of database automation software and solutions, today announced the first heterogeneous Configuration Management Database (CMDB) solution for multi-platform database environments. GridApp's Clarity software is the only database automation system to manage application configuration information for heterogeneous database environments, providing improved control and stability, as well as the ability to easily integrate into a larger CMDB architecture.
Configuration Management Database (CMDB) represents the future in systems management, enabling organizations to baseline configurations, audit user activity, and institute change management processes and security controls. However, building an integrated CMDB, or managing the complexity of multiple CMDBs for each infrastructure tier within the data center, is an ongoing challenge for many organizations.
GridApp Clarity database automation software functions as a fully-capable CMDB at the database level, serving as a simple first step to any company's multi-tiered or "federated" CMDB strategy. Moreover, Clarity enables companies to demonstrate compliance, improve application availability, tighten security and enhance productivity.
"The lack of change control and configuration management for the database tier is a direct cause of downtime and loss of revenue," said Robert Gardos, president and CEO of GridApp Systems. "Clarity not only addresses a critical component of a comprehensive CMDB strategy but delivers immediate benefits by increasing uptime, reducing maintenance overhead and improving security."
Increasingly complex database environments and strict external compliance requirements are forcing enterprises to rethink how they build and manage their database infrastructure. As a result, the ability to enforce procedures, quickly adapt to changing IT requirements and track user activity is becoming increasingly critical. GridApp Systems' Clarity transforms the existing database infrastructure into a centrally administered and automated data utility, regardless of whether the platform is Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, Sybase or a combination of these databases. By simplifying repetitive tasks, enforcing standard operating procedures and change management processes, and correlating events for root cause analysis, organizations can dramatically improve database reliability, performance and cost efficiency.
GridApp Systems' Chief Scientist Matthew Zito recently authored a white paper on CMDB entitled "Configuration Management for the Database," which provides additional information on CMDB strategies and how CMDB works at the database level.
