Tables that you work on during the Fly stage
You reach the fly stage after you have accomplished all or most of the earlier stages.
- Business capability [cmdb_ci_business_capability] table
-
A business capability is a high-level capability that supports a business model or fulfills a mission for your organization.
- Information object [cmdb_ci_information_object] table
-
You capture asset information as information objects. You can connect the information objects to your business applications to create an application portfolio that you can use at any time.
You can use the Information Object table to identify the types of data that a business application uses, including highly sensitive data such as:- Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
- Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) data
- Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) data
Information objects are part of the information portfolio. The information portfolio links to the following data:- Data Domains: Total number of records in the Data Domain[sn_apm_data_domain]. table
- Information Objects: Total number of records in the Information Object [cmdb_ci_information_object] table.
- Database Instances: Total number of records in the Database Instance [cmdb_ci_db_instance] table.
- Database Catalogs: Total number of records in the Database Catalog [cmdb_ci_db_catalog] table.
重要:You might need to implement the Information object [cmdb_ci_information_object] table as part of an earlier stage. Your business requirements determine the right stage for implementing the table. - Request catalog
-
Users request services through the request catalog. The request catalog is not a CMDB table. Catalogs are described in detail in Service Catalog.

-
- Business service portfolio [service_portfolio] table
