Technopedia’s lifecycle data empowers you to forecast risk in your critical business services based on upcoming EOL/EOS dates. For the resources that can’t be upgraded, you can anticipate the impact of increased costs for extended support.

Frequently asked questions

IT visibility is the ability to have a comprehensive, real-time insight into your organization's entire IT estate. This encompasses everything from traditional on-premises hardware and software to cloud-based services, applications, and the vast array of interconnected devices known as the internet of things (IoT). For more information, see our glossary here.

A CMDB is a core repository that serves as a data silo in an organization, keeping all the information about the company’s IT environment. This database is purposely built to manage configuration. A CMDB offers you a central place to store data related to your IT infrastructure and configuration assets. Learn more here.

The main difference between ITAM and CMDB is their purpose: ITAM is designed to monitor the procurement, implementation, maintenance and disposal of your IT assets, while CMDB monitors the characteristics, associations and dependencies of configuration items, giving you a clear picture of the effect of variations and occurrences across your IT infrastructure.

While both terms indicate phases where support diminishes for a product, they have distinct meanings:

  • EOL: This is the date after which a product will no longer be sold or renewed. However, it might still receive some form of support, such as security patches
  • EOS: This date marks the complete cessation of all support services for the product. After this date, no new patches, updates or fixes will be released, even for critical vulnerabilities
