CMDBuild is an open source web application designed to model and manage a custom database of assets and design related workflow processes. The purpose of this software is to enable operators to have full control of the assets, knowing their composition, location, functional relations and the changes over time.
CMDBuild allows you to design ITIL compliant workflows. Through a SOAP webservice CMDBuild makes available the data stored in CMDB and their operation methods; using the standard portlet JRS guarantees interoperability with applications such as “Portal”.
