The MDB Schema

The MDB schema provides a unified and extensible model for enterprise IT management. It contains both common tables and product-specific tables that were previously implemented in separate product databases. The MDB serves as the enterprise database for all CA Technologies products and acts as the primary reference point. This allows you to write single queries that retrieve data from tables across different products.

The MDB schema includes the database objects used by CA Technologies products and their components. These include tables, columns, views, and procedures. The MDB manages operational and transaction data, as well as the analytical data used for intelligence and data mining. Depending on your organization's business needs and structure, you may use a single MDB or multiple MDBs; both approaches utilize the same schema.
