Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) is a set of management and Internet standard technologies developed to unify the management of enterprise computing environments.

What is WBEM?

Web Based Enterprise Management is an Industry initiative to provide management of systems, networks, users and applications across multiple vendor environments. WBEM simplifies system management, providing better access to both software and hardware data that is readable by WBEM compliant applications.
WBEM has been designed to be compatible with all the major existing management protocols, including SNMP, DMI, and CMIP. WBEM is a DMTF standard. Industry standards used in the WBEM initiative include:
  • Common Information Model (CIM)
  • Common Information Model Schema
  • CIM Operations Over HTTP
  • eXtensible Markup Language (XML)
Please just submit pages that provide information about WBEM or of the related standard CIM - Common Information Model. Please note that there are subcategories for news-articles about WBEM, for implementations of WBEM-Functionality in any programming language and for the CIM-Standard. Please submit entries there if appropriate.
