Abstract:
This paper presents an application of data center IT architecture ontology model for corporate environments. The article is based PAS77 in order to get a service continuity view and uses Unified Foundation Ontology (UFO) to produce a well-founded ontology. It is built using the Conceptual Model Language OntoUML with the objective of preserving the ontologic prerogatives defined in the UFO. This model was applied to enterprise data center environments, being able to identify IT components and verify the adherence of these components describing the PAS77.
