Enterprise Architecture & CMDB with Jira Service Management
Transform Your Enterprise with Atlassian-Powered EA & CMDB
In today’s digital economy, organizations must manage complexity, streamline IT operations, and align business strategy with technology execution. Our Enterprise Architecture & CMDB solution with Jira Service Management bridges the gap between business capabilities, application portfolios, and IT operations — using the power of the Atlassian platform.
This solution combines:
-
Enterprise Architecture (EA) governance
-
Business capability management
-
IT application management & optimization
-
Configuration Management Database (CMDB) built on Jira Service Management
to help forward-thinking enterprises reduce risk, improve decision making, and accelerate transformation.
Why This Matters: Challenges We Solve
Modern enterprises face growing complexity across business, applications, and IT services, making it difficult to maintain alignment, visibility, and control at scale. Most common critical cross-domain challenges are:
Difficulty understanding how business capabilities map to applications and infrastructure
Fragmented CMDB or lack of trusted ITSM data
Poor alignment between strategy, architecture standards, and IT decisions
Inefficient incident, change, and asset processes
Inability to optimize application portfolios for cost and risk
Limited end-to-end visibility across services, dependencies, and organizational silos
Core Components of the Enterprise Architecture CMDB with Jira Service Management Solution
1. Enterprise Architecture (EA) at Scale
Enterprise Architecture is no longer siloed documentation — it is an ongoing, decision-centric discipline that guides:
-
Strategic planning & capability mapping
-
Technology standards & adoption
-
Solution design governance
-
Cross-domain impact analysis
We leverage globally-recognized frameworks such as TOGAF and BizBOK (Business Architecture Body of Knowledge) to structure and govern your architecture practice. This gives you a common language and foundation for decision making.

2. Business Capabilities & Strategy Alignment
Business Capabilities are the heart of successful architecture — they link what the business does with how it delivers value.
Our solution enables:
-
Strategic capability planning
-
Capability maps tied to organizational outcomes
-
Prioritization of initiatives based on value, cost, and risk
This capability-driven approach ensures that architecture decisions are grounded in business outcomes — not just technology.
3. IT Application Management & Optimization
A robust view of your application landscape supports better decisions around:
-
Rationalization and optimization
-
Application lifecycle planning
-
Cost and risk reduction
-
Redundancy elimination
With Jira Service Management as the backbone, your teams gain:
-
A centralized application registry
-
Visibility into technical debt and dependencies
-
Cross-team workflows for change, release, and incident response
4. CMDB Built Within Jira Service Management
A trusted CMDB is the foundation of modern ITSM and ITOM. Our solution delivers a scalable, accurate, and actionable CMDB using Enterprise Architecture & CMDB with Jira Service Management.
This includes:
-
Configuration item (CI) modeling aligned to architecture domains
-
Automated CI lifecycle and discovery integration
-
End-to-end visibility across services, assets, and infrastructure
-
Auditable change and configuration processes
The result? Fewer outages, faster triage, and improved service delivery.
