Service Mapping Fundamentals

Learn how to discover and model application services to manage service health, determine the business impact of infrastructure problems, simplify the root cause analysis of service issues

Learn how to discover and model application services to manage service health, determine the business impact of infrastructure problems, simplify the root cause analysis of service issues, and minimize the service impact of infrastructure changes.

A combination of course content and lab work will help attendees learn to gain a clear understanding of the ServiceNow Service Mapping solution and its capabilities and how it differs from the ServiceNow Discovery solution. Learn the concepts and value of ServiceNow Service Mapping top down discovery that allows ServiceNow administrators to model an entire service by providing a single entry point to the service such as a web URL or host address and port.
