VISTA Database Views

For the purposes of this integration, DC Operations is working with Avocent via a professional services contract to provide and maintain views for exposing configuration data to ServiceNow. At first this will be a one-way (SN read-only) integration, so Aperture will remain the canonical source of information, while SN will be used to plan & detect changes under the rubric of ITIL Change & Configuration management.
