The Unified Service Model (USM) is the semantic schema that is used as the CA Catalyst and CA SOI infrastructure. Connectors transform all data that is collected from domain managers to the USM format before sending the data through CA Catalyst. The USM schema is stored in the CA Catalyst Registry.
USM is a high-level abstraction and generalization of IT management concepts that facilitate the semantic merging and interoperability of more specific domains. USM is developed to abstract and integrate information across many management products and domains. USM provides a single point for data federation, interoperability, and access to management data across an enterprise.
CA Catalyst provides the mechanisms to make all outbound from connector data adhere to the USM schema. CA SOI provides the interfaces to display the USM-compliant data.
