In their own words

BlueKing CMDB

BlueKing CMDB is an enterprise configuration-management platform for managing assets and applications. Teams can extend built-in model attributes and create models and relationships for networks, middleware and virtual resources. The platform provides machine-data snapshots, automatic discovery and change-event pushes. Host management covers basic attributes, snapshots and ownership relationships; organizational tools manage business-based structures, while process management organizes host processes by module. Event registration and delivery use callbacks. User-group permissions provide access controls, and operation auditing supports tracing user activity. BlueKing CMDB uses a microservice architecture with a Go backend and Vue.js frontend. Deployment documentation lists ZooKeeper, Redis and MongoDB dependencies, with Elasticsearch and Monstache for full-text search. The project supports independent deployment, and its container instructions cover Windows, macOS and Linux Docker environments. The open-source version is MIT-licensed and free, but disables user-management functionality because it runs without login. Documentation, a wiki, a forum, video tutorials and QQ technical groups are listed as support resources.
