On Demand Enterprise Asset Inventory solution integrates with IBM Tivoli CCMDB for continuous accuracy and analysis

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., October 9, 2006-BDNA Corporation, a leading provider of On Demand Enterprise Asset Inventory solutions, announced that its BDNA Inventory solution maps seamlessly into the IBM Tivoli Change and Configuration Management Database (CCMDB).

BDNA uses patented technology to deliver enterprise-wide visibility of IT investments - any device, system and software on a corporation's IP-network - rapidly and accurately. The technology does not require agents or any architectural changes and a comprehensive inventory catalog automates system categorization to provide on-demand aggregated business analytics. The speed, accuracy and intelligence of the software has been harnessed and integrated with the IBM CCMDB and complements the IBM Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager.

"Implementing a Configuration Management Database (CMDB) is on almost every Global 2000 company's "to-do" list as they strive to gain better controls over their IT investments and the changes in their infrastructure," stated Patricia Adams, Research Director at Gartner, an industry leading analyst firm. "The critical first step for any CMDB initiative is having a complete, accurate view of what is running in their environment. Reliable inventory data facilitates operational decisions, while enabling ongoing visibility and analysis of the data."

"We believe that BDNA and Tivoli are creating a unique solution to drive more rapid deployment and industry acceptance of CMDB projects inside large enterprises", said Constantin Delivanis, CEO of BDNA Corporation. "Populating the CCMDB with our on demand enterprise inventory solution and IBM Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager technology maximizes the business value and accelerates the benefits associated with a CMDB initiative."
