The IT Skeptic doesn't slam anyone who mentions ITIL. I slam anyone who shovels bullshit.

As Michael says MyCMDB might actually be an interesting new way to look at the data, but it is being sold as the magic bullet for the underlying problems of CMDB.

New ways to look at data are amusing but we have more fundamental issues to address first. MyCMDB is a "shiny object" that delivers minimal value.

Managed Objects may be a focused company but as far as i can see they are out of focus: their messaging around MyCMDB makes little sense to me.

Cheers
