The IT Skeptic Looks at CMDB

by Rob England

Making the case against the concept of CMDB as defined by ITIL, this book proposes better spending the money elsewhere and doing the job with "wetware": people. The IT Skeptic is probably best known for strident criticism of the concept of CMDB as described in ITIL, and of ITIL3's extensions of the concept to CMS and SKMS. This book is a collection of content from the IT Skeptic blog (and elsewhere) on the topic of CMDB - collated, edited, improved and clarified, along with some original material.
