Can EA and ServiceNow coexist? How?

[EA_enthusiast]

Hello EA experts,

Scenario: When a consultant for a government organization, in which they use ServiceNow, started creating an application inventory and technology inventory and modeling their dependencies, they were told, "We plan to capture this information in ServiceNow". 

I am interested to hear your thoughts about the possibility of having ServiceNow and EA coexist in the same organization.

Thank you!

There is an integration in Pro Cloud Server or Prolaborate with ServiceNow

Thanks a lot Geert for chiming in.

Could you please provide more details such as:

- What are the best practices for using EA and ServiceNow together within an organization? (what should be the function of each system)?
- Are there any use cases where it's particularly beneficial to have both tools coexist?
- What are the parts of the EA repository that are commonly integrated between the two systems?

Any additional insights or recommendations you can share regarding the coexistence and integration of EA and ServiceNow would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

My apology for the typo, Geert

We currently use both EA (for modelling purposes) and ServiceNow (as a CMDB) in our organisation but they are not integrated.

I would like them to be integrated mainly for diagramming purposes, I'm not aware of any ServiceNow module where diagramming can be preformed whereas EA is very good for this purpose.

Thank you, rupertkiwi.

I came across this in EA documentation: Walkthrough: ServiceNow Integration.
