DATAGERRY is a configuration management database and asset management tool.
A CMDB is a database which includes all informations about objects (i.e. servers, routers, locations, maintenance contracts), that are required for operating an IT infrastructure. Also the relationships between objects are stored (i.e. server a is placed on location b). Available solutions tend to be shipped with predefined object types, that often can only be customized with big efforts.
It comes with an own web server, but it’s recommended to use Nginx as a reverse proxy for performance reasons. It needs MongoDB 4.2+, and RabbitMQ. Most of DATAGERRY’s configuration is stored in MongoDB.
The software is published under an open source license.
Key Features
- Define your own object types (e.g. router, server, location) in a simple web frontend. Every IT environment has its individual structure. The software therefore does not come with predefined object types. With DATAGERRY you have the freedom to simply define the data model for your own.
- Add objects manually or import them from a CSV, Excel, XML, JSON file.
- Define automated exports to external systems (e.g. Monitoring Systems, Config Management, Backup, Ticket Systems, DNS, …).
- Use one of our APIs to integrate your systems.
