Bk Cmdb
bk-cmdb is an enterprise platform for centralized IT asset management, topology mapping, and configuration management. It functions as a configuration management database (CMDB) that stores and manages IT asset attributes, relationships, and lifecycle states, providing infrastructure visibility across an organization. The platform is built around a topology-driven data model that structures IT assets and their relationships as a flexible graph of business units, clusters, modules, and hosts.
The system distinguishes itself through its event-driven integration engine, which registers data change events and pushes real-time callbacks to external systems for automated workflows. It includes a role-based access control system that restricts feature and data access through group-based policies, supported by audit trail logging that records all user operations with before-and-after state details for compliance and security review. Users can extend the built-in schema through custom model definitions, allowing new asset types and attributes to be added without code changes.
The platform supports hierarchical topology queries for navigating infrastructure relationships across business units, clusters, and modules, and captures periodic snapshots of host attributes to track configuration drift over time. It also provides capabilities for organizing teams and departments into a configurable business unit hierarchy, managing host lifecycles, and associating processes with the software modules they belong to.
Features
- IT Asset Management Systems - Provides a centralized platform for modeling, storing, and managing IT assets and their topological relationships.
- IT Asset Topology Models - Structures IT assets and their relationships as a flexible graph of business units, clusters, modules, and hosts.
- Asset Topology Relationships - Stores and manages relationships between IT assets so teams can visualize and navigate their infrastructure hierarchy.
- Infrastructure Topology Visualizations - Models and visualizes the hierarchical relationships between IT assets, hosts, clusters, and business units to represent infrastructure structure.
- Role-Based Access Controls - Restricts feature and data access through configurable group policies mapped to user roles.
- Event-Driven Automation Engines - Registers data change events and pushes real-time callbacks to external systems for automated workflows.
- Host Lifecycle Management - Tracks host attributes, snapshots, and ownership to keep an up-to-date inventory of computing resources.
- Infrastructure Topology Mapping - Provides a topology mapping tool for defining and visualizing hierarchical relationships among hosts, clusters, and business units.
- Event-Driven Callbacks - Fires callbacks to external systems when model instances are created, updated, or deleted for real-time integration.
- Infrastructure Hierarchy Mappings - Manages hierarchical relationships among hosts, clusters, and business units to represent the infrastructure structure.

Star history
How this analysis was created: This summary and feature list were written by an AI model that read the project's README and public documentation pages. Each feature links to the documentation it came from; stars, license and language come straight from the GitHub API. The model does not read the source code, and the analysis is refreshed when the project is re-analysed. Learn more on our About page.
