What is ConfigBuddy and how does it fix CMDB staleness?

ConfigBuddy's an open-source CMDB with 43 connectors using LLM pattern-learning to replay discoveries, keeping data fresh without constant rewrites.

Why choose Neo4j for ConfigBuddy's CMDB?

Neo4j excels at fast graph traversals for impact analysis, unlike slow relational joins—perfect for outage queries.

Yes, with caveats: handles scale, but tune Neo4j ops and watch identity resolution edges.
