Database application federation
According to an aspect, a system for assisting a user with configuration management may include a configuration management database (CMDB) system having a plurality of configuration items, and an application external to the CMDB system. The CMDB system may associate an invocation string with a first configuration item and the application external to the CMDB system. The CMDB system may obtain information from the first configuration item, where the information from the first configuration item provides information for launching the application external to the CMDB system. The CMDB system may insert the information from the first configuration item into the invocation string to create an application execution command. The CMDB system may execute the application external to the CMDB system, independently from the CMDB system, based on the application execution command.
