Embodiments herein include systems, methods, software, and data structures to generate and render visualizations of configuration items (CIs) represented in a Configuration Management Database (CMDB). One embodiment includes receiving a request for a CI graph from a client including a focus CI identifier represented in a CMDB. The focus CI may be used to retrieve data of related CIs, the data including CI identifiers. A process is then executed for each retrieved CI identifier to retrieve CI data as a function of the received CI identifier and to build a node XML and an edge XML representation of relations between the CIs. This method also includes aggregating the node and edge XML representations into a single XML document and then translating the document into a markup language document capable of being rendered in a graphical user interface. The markup language document is then transmitted to the requestor.

A flexible, platform-independent integration infrastructure is provided. The integration infrastructure may include an integration bridge and at least one plug-in, where the at least one plug-in may include translation rules, mapping rules, and other information associated with a component coupled to the plug-in. The translation rules, mapping rules, and other information may be used by the integration bridge during a mapping process to control communication between components. Based on the rules and information, a mapping translator of the integration bridge converts data received from component into a form readable by another component.
