Abstract
In one embodiment, techniques are provided for modeling infrastructure from a plurality of modeling perspectives using an intelligent model hierarchy. A repository model for the infrastructure is generated that serves as a root of the intelligent model hierarchy. The repository model includes a root subject and one or more child subjects. One or more information partitions are generated for each subject, each information partition being associated with a respective modeling perspective. One or more child models are associated with each information partition. The one or more child models each containing one or more infrastructure elements that express the modeling perspective of the information partition with which the child model is associated. The repository model and the one or more child models are maintained together in a repository, and infrastructure elements of a selected model may be displayed on demand in a user interface of a client.
