Drift Detection and Alerts

Maintain Trust in Modelled Applications and Services Automatically

uAlert in TekWurx uControl continuously monitors your modelled applications and services (built in uMap) to detect drift, validate linked components, and alert owners when changes impact accuracy.

The outcome: trusted service models and a CMDB that stays aligned throughout the lifecycle without manual audits.

Why Drift Happens

Modern estates change constantly. Components are:

  • Decommissioned, replaced, or renamed
  • Moved between environments
  • Re-platformed into cloud services
  • Added without being captured in service models

Over time, this creates model drift and the CMDB and service views lose credibility.

uAlert prevents that by keeping models current as reality changes.

What uAlert Does

Validates Linked Application Components

uAlert checks whether components linked to an application/service model are still valid.

Identifies New Components Using Tag + Drift Rules

uAlert uses tag rules and drift rules to spot candidates that may belong to modelled applications/services.

Highlights New Relationships Discovered or Imported

Continuously Validate Modelled Components

uAlert monitors every component linked to your uMap applications and services to ensure they remain valid and current.

  • Verify components are still being discovered or imported
  • Detect deleted, decommissioned or stale assets
  • Identify lifecycle changes impacting service models
  • Alert owners when linked CIs drift from reality

Stay aligned with what actually exists in your estate.

Identify Drift and New Relationship Candidates

Using tag rules and drift logic, uAlert highlights potential changes that affect model accuracy.

  • Identify new servers/components matching service tag rules
  • Surface newly discovered or imported relationships
  • Detect components that may belong to existing applications
  • Flag architectural changes for review

Proactively catch changes before models lose credibility.

Keep Service Models and CMDB in Sync

Once reviewed and validated by owners, updates can be applied automatically—ensuring uMap and the CMDB stay aligned.

  • Owner-validated updates
  • Automated relationship adjustments
  • Reduced CMDB drift
  • Reliable impact and dependency visibility

Maintain trusted service models throughout the full lifecycle.
