Benefits of Cherwell DDM from Virima
Virima Visual Impact Display (ViVID)
Cherwell DDM from Virima provides consumable views of automatically generated infrastructure relationships, application/service dependencies, network topologies and system communications. The tight integration with Cherwell also includes the ability to show CSM records, such as recently completed changes and open incidents, within the Virima Visual Impact Display (ViVID™). ViVID greatly decreases the time to perform impact analysis of planned changes and identify the root causes of service disruptions.
Flexible Discovery options for hybrid IT
Discovery options include scheduling agentless IP-based scans with over 140 extendable probes as well as an installable agent for work-from-anywhere PC’s. Additional discovery is performed via API integrations with popular hypervisor, cloud (AWS and Azure), network, storage and monitoring solutions.
Codeless integration and configuration
Integration to the Cherwell CMDB is 100% codeless and a breeze to configure through Virima’s web admin portal. There you choose from over 100 Virima blueprints to map to Cherwell objects (including custom objects), ID which discovery properties you want to synch, and choose asset-specific correlators to ensure nothing is ever duplicated.
Cherwell CMDB automation
Within the Cherwell CMDB all synched assets and configuration properties are viewable from the Cherwell web client and desktop agent. New action links automatically appear in the Cherwell CMDB record providing ITSM users the ability to rescan the asset and view available Virima dependency and relationship maps.

Within the Cherwell CMDB all synched assets and configuration properties are viewable from the Cherwell web client and desktop agent.
