The main difference between ITAM and CMDB is their purpose–ITAM is designed to monitor the procurement, implementation, maintenance and disposal of your IT assets, while CMDB monitors the characteristics, associations and dependencies of configuration items, giving you a picture of the effect of variations and occurrences across your IT infrastructure.

While both terms indicate phases where support diminishes for a product, they have distinct meanings:

  • End of life (EOL) is the date after which a product will no longer be sold or renewed. However, it might still receive some form of support, such as security patches.
  • End of support (EOS) is the date that marks the complete cessation of all support services for the product. After this date, no new patches, updates or fixes will be released, even for critical vulnerabilities.
