Overview

A Software Catalog serves as your organization’s central repository of software assets and ownership information. It provides a complete view of your applications, services, infrastructure components, and the teams responsible for them. The catalog helps engineering teams answer essential questions about their technology landscape.

​

A software catalog helps teams quickly answer common questions, such as:
  • Who owns this application?

  • What database does this application use?
