According to ITIL, the CDB is the cornerstone of a successful capacity management process as a subset of a Configuration Management DataBase (CMDB). This white paper demonstrates the need for capacity management and the role a CDB plays in this activity, based on ITIL goals. It defines the data types that comprise a CDB and how one would use them in managing the environment and creating a capacity plan.
