What does a Business Service Map graphically represent?

  1. The CI relationships

  2. The cost of business services

  3. The uptime of CIs

  4. The CI compliance status

The correct answer is: The CI relationships

A Business Service Map is a visual representation that illustrates the relationships between Configuration Items (CIs) within an organization's IT infrastructure and services. It effectively shows how different CIs—such as applications, servers, and network devices—interact and depend on one another to deliver business services. This map helps stakeholders understand the dependencies and impact of these CIs on business operations, making it easier to manage incidents, changes, and overall service delivery. The focus of a Business Service Map is not on financial metrics, uptime statistics, or compliance statuses, but rather on the interconnectedness of CIs that contribute to the functioning of the business services. By visualizing these connections, organizations can better strategize on service management and operational efficiencies.
