Title: CMDB Federation: DMTF Standards for Federating Configuration Management Data and MDRs
Abstract: Many organizations base IT management on a configuration management system consisting of a configuration management database (CMDB), other management data repositories, and configuration and change management processes to plan and govern changes in the IT environment. Federation technology may be used to balance the need to integrate data from the various data repositories with a need to manage the data in each repository separately.
