As part of the Cesnet Development Fund project entitled "Asset Management - Online record keeping and complete asset management of the university's IT infrastructure", the ICS MUNI team focused on creating comprehensive support for the record keeping and management of network, hardware and software assets within the extensive ICT infrastructure of Masaryk University.
The main objective of the project was the design, implementation and prototype deployment of a modular system, suitably integrating selected specialized tools covering partial agendas of management and registration of supporting technical assets of large-scale infrastructure into a single, interconnected unit. Within the project solution, the appropriate tools were effectively connected in order to automate routine tasks and synchronise subsystems, or to provide the functionality of advanced data analysis examining the status, operation and the use of the IT infrastructure. The project team aimed not only to ensure data consistency between the different agendas, but also to make available new features and functionalities using the possibility of modular expansion. In the future, the developed system will become the initial data source for the asset registration within the Masaryk University environment.
