Software license management

While understanding which assets are deployed in the data center infrastructure is a critical component, it is also important for organizations to create and maintain a comprehensive and accurate profile of software deployed to machines throughout the IT infrastructure.

• Installed packaged software catalog, patches, and versions
• Compare current usage with license counts
• Detect prohibited software
• Track license agreements and expiration dates
• Identify purchased vs. installed software
• View and notify about vulnerabilities corresponding to vulnDB software versions

Mapping Application Dependencies

Application Dependency Mapping (ADM) enables Device42 to automatically discover application and service dependencies at a deeper level across your network. ADM is valuable in a variety of scenarios. Migration and transformation projects are informed by the detailed dependency information that ADM presents. ITSM and DevOps lifecycle operations are also improved as information about subsequent impacts of incidents becomes available.

• Agentless services and application discovery using native protocols.
• Application dependency diagrams visualize relationships between apps and devices.
• Use application impact lists to reduce potential risk and downtime.
• Automatically discover application components for applications such as Oracle, Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, IIS, etc.
• Detailed configuration discovery for key applications such as Oracle, Microsoft SQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, ColdFusion, IIS, Apache, and more.
