Microsoft Foundry data model
The following diagram illustrates the tables and relationships that the AI Agent Topology Mapping application creates when discovering Microsoft Foundry resources.
Microsoft Foundry data model
Note: The following relationships are stored in the Asset-CI Relationship [cmdb_rel_asset_ci] table and aren't represented in the Dependency View map:
- The Deployed as::Deployment of relationship between AI Function [cmdb_ci_function_ai] and AI System Digital Asset [alm_ai_system_digital_asset].
- The Used by::Uses relationship between AI Model Deployment [cmdb_ci_ai_model_deployment] and AI Model Digital Asset [alm_ai_model_digital_asset].
Discovery requirements
Verify that the applications are up to date
Discovering these resources may require updating to the latest version of the following applications from the ServiceNow Store:
- AI Agent Topology Mapping
- Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns
- Visibility Content
- CMDB CI Class Models
- Activate the cloud-related CI relationships
To include discovered components into service instances, enable CI relationships used in tag-based discovery by Service Mapping. These CI relationships are available from the 1.0.68 release on the ServiceNow Store. For operational steps, see Tag-based discovery configuration.
Azure Availability Set
Wait for the Clean-Up job for Availability zone to clear availability set record schedule job to delete all the pre-populated availability set's Configuration Items (CI) in the cmdb_ci_azure_availability_set table.
Azure Availability Zone
To run a discovery with Azure Availability Zone, register the subscription ID to the AvailabilityZonePeering feature with AZ CLI using
az feature register -n AvailabilityZonePeering --namespace Microsoft.Resourcesto use the Check Zone Peering API. Check the status withaz feature show -n AvailabilityZonePeering --namespace Microsoft.Resourcesbefore running discovery.Set up Azure service accounts
Enable Cloud Discovery to access your Azure environment.
Discovering Azure GovCloud (US) accounts requires using a datacenter URL when setting up an Azure service account. For more information, see Set up Azure service accounts.
Create an Azure cloud discovery schedule
For more information, see Create an Azure Discovery schedule in Discovery Admin Workspace.
(Optional) Discover datacenters only for new subscriptions
Starting with Zurich Patch 2, you can discover datacenters only for new subscriptions added since the last discovery. For more information, see Discover datacenters only for new cloud accounts.
(Optional) Populate Service Account and Logical Datacenter fields in cloud CIs
Starting with Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns version 1.30.2, you can improve query performance by populating Service Account and Logical Datacenter fields directly in cloud CIs. For more information, see Improved query performance with direct field population in CI tables.
Verify the REST API Permissions
Download the Cloud Discovery patterns spreadsheet so you can grant user permissions required for running the Discovery patterns. In addition to permissions, the spreadsheet also includes useful information such as pattern names, types, CI Classes, and links to vendor documentation. New patterns are available quarterly, so check periodically to be sure you have the latest version of the spreadsheet.
Data collection
The AI Agent Topology Mapping application includes the following patterns for Microsoft Foundry discovery:
- Azure - AI Foundry Agents
- Azure - AI Service Foundry
- Azure - AI Service Foundry Project
- Azure - AI Foundry Models
The Azure - AI Foundry Agents pattern collects AI System Digital Assets, AI Prompt Digital Assets, and Key Value information. You can view this information in the Related Links section of the CI record by navigating to All > Configuration > Azure > Azure AI Foundry Agents and selecting the relevant record.
The Azure - AI Foundry Models pattern collects AI Model Digital Assets. You can view this information in the Related Links section of the CI record by navigating to All > Configuration > Azure > Azure AI Foundry Models and selecting the relevant record.
The AI Agent Topology Mapping application populates data in both CMDB and non-CMDB tables.
Data stored in non-CMDB tables
The AI Agent Topology Mapping application populates data in non-CMDB tables when running the Microsoft Foundry patterns.
If you have the AI Control Tower application, you can view the information in the AI Control Tower Workspace.
