How to use
Nodinite provides documentation as a CMDB feature called the Repository Model. Nodinite Administrators or repository contributors manage the Repository Model as your single source of truth.
Feature | Description |
---|---|
Monitor Views | Access documentation instantly—no more searching |
Alerts | Get the information you need to resolve issues or create well-defined tickets |
Log Views | Easily identify which Integration logged each event |
Knowledge base Articles | Access related articles and user guides directly from Monitor Views |
Integration Landscape | Visualize your integration landscape with drag-and-drop entities for a holistic overview |
End-user perspective | Administrator perspective |
---|---|
How do I know how many Integrations I have? | How do I create and manage Integrations? |
What
Nodinite defines common system integration entities in a standard way, creating a unified representation that fits all integration platforms.
Why (End-user perspective 2)
With integrations distributed across on-premise and cloud systems, you often find documentation fragmented. Nodinite lets you document everything in one place, reducing complexity and increasing independence.
How (End-user perspective 2)
Nodinite includes built-in administration for managing the Repository Model. Developers automate documentation using the Web API as part of their DevOps routines.
