Hi All,
I am trying to fill in a number of gaps in our Applications to Business Services Mapping. 
Unfortunately our CMDB does not hold this information, so we have resorted to an additional mapping table which is now over 2k rows long.
Does a pre-defined list exist for the most popular Applications (similar to MultiCloud connector) that has default classifications the latest Business Services Taxonomy version?

Or shall I stop dreaming and just get on with it?

Thanks,
Martyn

@Martyn Dawes I don't think there is anything like this right now.  I know that in the TBM Healthcare group we tried to start something like this but don't think it was ever completed.  At Tenet we have about 1K records in our apps to services mapping table.  However, this is a good idea.  If you want to put an idea in that would be great.  ​

Thanks @Michael Enslein - I'll put it forward​

My 2 cts: we have a static table with about 2k entries, with just a handful of columns:

• Application + Application ID [the name is redundant, but better for humans reading it]
• Service Offering + Service Offering ID [ditto]
• Weighting

We have a transform of this table, where we change the weighting for those entries for which we have a data source detailing the influence of that application on various business services.

Compliance with ATUM will depend on the categorization of Business Services (in our installation). For us, it doesn't matter, for now.

Thanks @Guillermo Cuadrado, the weighting is an interesting idea - at the moment we use a one for one match.​

For us, weightings are a must, @Martyn Dawes. About half of our applications share an enterprise service bus, and many business services draw from several of them.
These n:m dependencies require weightings.​​ Some are assumptive (=static), some other consumptive, e.g. based on transaction volumes, etc.
