Abstract
An inventory management database is disclosed. The database can include container objects, hardware component objects, and software component objects. Container objects correspond to equipment on which other equipment can be installed. Hardware component objects correspond to hardware components that are installable on the equipment to which the container objects correspond. When a hardware component is installed on the equipment to which a container object corresponds, the corresponding hardware component object is assigned to this container object. Software component objects correspond to software components that are also installable on the equipment to which the container objects correspond. When a software component is installed on the equipment to which a container object corresponds, the corresponding software component object is assigned to this container object.
