The Agentic CMDB: AI integration via Model Context Protocol (MCP) and CLI
Emerging protocols like MCP allow AI agents to interact directly with technical systems.
This thesis aims to build a functional CLI-based bridge that empowers AI agents to
query and validate the Versio.io inventory in real-time.
- Research on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for standardized data exchange with AI
agents
- Development of a CLI tool to bridge local developer environments with the Versio.io
API
- Prototyping an AI assistant that uses MCP to interact with the IT inventory
Automated derivation of regulatory compliance rules using AI
Modern regulatory frameworks like NIS2 or DORA pose significant challenges for manual
implementation. This thesis explores how Artificial Intelligence can be used to automatically
translate complex legal requirements into actionable technical rules within Versio.io.
- Analysis of regulatory requirements (NIS2, DORA, BAIT) and their mapping to technical
metrics
- Development of an AI-based concept (LLM/RAG) to derive hardening rules from formal
documents
- Implementation of a prototype to automate rule updates in the Versio.io Governance
Engine
Data-driven Software License Management based on Versio.io Inventory
Software license compliance is only as accurate as the underlying discovery data.
This thesis explores how the granular, real-time inventory captured by Versio.io can
be systematically transformed into an automated license management system to bridge
the gap between actual installations and contract entitlements.
- Mapping of Versio.io CI attributes and inventory classes to specific licensing metrics
(e.g., CPU cores, installation paths, SaaS seats)
- Development of an automated reconciliation logic that matches the live inventory state
against a repository of license entitlements
- Creation of a data-driven dashboard for identifying shelfware and optimization potentials
based on historical inventory trends
Maximizing the operational value of Kubernetes & Container inventories
Pure discovery of containers is no longer enough for modern enterprise IT. This topic
investigates how to enrich Kubernetes data with business context, security metrics,
and cost transparency to provide a higher value for stakeholders.
- Analysis of dependencies between microservices and their underlying infrastructure
in Versio.io
- Integration of security and cost aspects into the container inventory process
- Design of automated change monitoring scenarios for dynamic cloud-native environments
AI-powered CMDB: Enhancing inventory data processing and insights within Versio.io
A modern CMDB contains vast amounts of complex, high-velocity data that can overwhelm
manual analysis. This thesis focuses on integrating AI capabilities directly into
the Versio.io platform to automate data processing, detect hidden patterns, and transform
raw inventory logs into intelligent, actionable insights.
- Development of AI-driven methods for automated data classification, normalization,
and anomaly detection within the Versio.io data pool
- Design of an integrated AI layer to identify complex relationships and predict impact
patterns across different infrastructure layers
- Prototyping a Natural Language Interface (NLI) to enable intuitive, conversational
querying and analysis of the digital twin directly within the platform
Automated IT landscape scan and integration to inventory workflows
Complete visibility is the foundation of every CMDB, but hybrid environments make
scanning a challenge. This topic focuses on designing intelligent, automated workflows
to eliminate blind spots and ensure the highest data quality.
- Analysis of scanning methods and identification of "blind spots" in hybrid infrastructures
- Design of a flexible orchestration framework for managing inventory jobs and triggers
- Development of automated data cleansing and quality assurance mechanisms
Multi-layer network topology inventory and visualization
Modern networks are composed of multiple layers, from physical hardware to virtual
overlays. This thesis develops a concept to unify these levels into a single, dynamic
network plan within the Versio.io ecosystem.
- Modeling network components across physical, logical, and virtual layers in Versio.io
- Development of logic for automated generation of dynamic network diagrams from scan
data
- Conception of an automated impact analysis based on the discovered network topology
Bidirectional integration between Versio.io and ServiceNow
Many enterprises use ServiceNow for ITSM but need the deep visibility of Versio.io.
This research focuses on the conception and implementation of a bidirectional synchronization
to ensure data consistency across both platforms.
- Harmonization and mapping of Configuration Item (CI) classes between both systems
- Development of a robust synchronization logic for data ownership and conflict resolution
- Prototyping a use case where Versio.io compliance alerts trigger ServiceNow incidents
