    Use cases

    The following are examples on how you can use the Service Graph Connector:
    • Visibility into cloud resources, relationships, and state.
    • Service ITAM/SAM outcomes through deep discovery of applications.

    Configuring a connection for the connector

    You can configure a connection for the connector by using the SGC Central view in the Service Graph Workspace or CMDB Workspace. The view enables you to discover and install connectors, and then effectively manage the full life cycle of creating, editing, monitoring, and debugging connections. To configure the connector using SGC Central, see Configure Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure using SGC Central.
    Wichtig:
    Unless there are configuration issues, use the SGC Central view in the Service Graph Workspace or CMDB Workspace to configure the connection for the connector, as the guided setup method is planned for deprecation.

    Important information for upgrading Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure

    After you upgrade to the latest version of the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure, you must run a full data load.

    CMDB integrations dashboard

    The Integration Commons for CMDB store app provides a dashboard with a central view of the status, processing results, and processing errors of all installed integrations. You can see metrics for all integration runs. You can filter the view to a specific CMDB integration, a specific time duration, or a specific integration run. For more details about monitoring Microsoft Azure integrations in the CMDB Integrations Dashboard, see Using the CMDB Integrations Dashboard.

    Data mapping

    Data from the Azure data sources is mapped and transformed into the ServiceNow CMDB Configuration Item (CI) class definitions using the Robust Transform Engine (RTE). Data is inserted into the ServiceNow® CMDB using the Identification and Reconciliation Engine (IRE).

    When you complete setting up the connection, you can configure the integration to periodically pull data from Azure. The data is loaded into staging tables and then inserted into the target tables.

    The following table lists the data sources, the staging tables, and the target tables as CMDB CI and non-CMDB classes for Azure.

    For more information on where data is saved when pulling data from Azure, see CMDB classes targeted in Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure and Supported Microsoft Azure resource types.

    You can use the IntegrationHub ETL app to view the data maps. See IntegrationHub ETL for more information.

    Additional information about Azure data sources:
    • The Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure utilizes the Service Graph Resource Inclusion Whitelist [sn_cmdb_int_util_service_graph_resource_inclusion_whitelist] table to differentiate between generic resources and other supported resource types.

      The connector first populates all supported resources in the Service Graph Resource Inclusion Whitelist [sn_cmdb_int_util_service_graph_resource_inclusion_whitelist] table. These resources, categorized under their respective supported resource types, have specific data sources designated for ingestion within the connector. When the SG-Azure Generic Resources data source is executed and retrieves unsupported resource types, they are added to the Service Graph Resource Inclusion Whitelist [sn_cmdb_int_util_service_graph_resource_inclusion_whitelist] table and categorized as generic.

    • The SG-Azure Hardware Template Updation and SG-Azure HW Consolidation import schedules replace the SG-Azure Hardware Template import schedule from the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure 1.12.0 version. The SG-Azure Hardware Template Updation and SG-Azure HW Consolidation data sources fetch only the data of the hardware templates that are used for VMs in Azure, instead of fetching all hardware templates.
    • The SG-Azure SQL data source populates the microsoft.dbformysql/flexibleservers and microsoft.dbforpostgresql/flexibleservers resource types in the Cloud Database [cmdb_ci_cloud_database] table instead of the Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] table from the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure 1.14.0 version.

      After upgrading to version 1.14.0, run a full data load to migrate all active flexible servers from the Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] table to the Cloud Database [cmdb_ci_cloud_database] table.

    • All data sources except SG-Azure Scale Sets VMs are migrated from Azure Resource Manager (ARM) APIs to Resource Graph APIs for a full data load from the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure 1.14.0 version. Microsoft Azure doesn't support uniform orchestration-type Scale Set VMs on Resource Graph APIs.

    Event-based discovery

    The Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure works with event-based discovery. Events that are pulled from Azure can create and update CIs that were brought by the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Azure.
