SIAM
Service Inventory Abstraction Model

SIAM is intended as a common API that would connect to enterprise-specific
service inventory systems and present the inventory data in a uniform format.
The purpose of this universal API is to reduce the integration costs for
such software systems as network monitoring, CRM, Customer self-service
portals, etc.
