First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer implemented method for accessing data from a configuration management database, the computer implemented method comprising:
- a processor receiving a data access request;
the processor, in response to determining that requested data must be acquired in real time by accessing a data source that initialized the requested data, acquiring the requested data from the data source in real time and storing the requested data as acquired data;
the processor, in response to determining that the requested data cannot be acquired in real time from the data source, acquiring the requested data as previously stored in a configuration management database; and
the processor providing the acquired data.

Abstract
A computer implemented method for accessing data begins with receipt of a data access request. In response to determining that the requested data needs to be acquired in real time from an original data source, the processor acquires and stores that data. In response to determining that the data cannot be acquired in real time from the data source, the processor acquires the data from a configuration management database in which the requested data was previously stored.

20. A computer program product for accessing data, the computer program product comprising:
-
a computer readable storage media; first program instructions to receive a data access request; second program instructions to, in response to determining that requested data must be acquired in real time by accessing a data source that created the requested data, acquire the requested data from the data source in real time and store the acquired data; third program instructions to, in response to determining that the requested data cannot be acquired in real time from the data source, acquire the requested data that was previously stored in a configuration management database; and fourth program instructions to provide the acquired data; and
wherein the first, second, third, and fourth program instructions are stored on the computer readable storage media.
