we are seeking a simple cmdb software for our startup, which can easily manage the service and it's owner/group information. Alerting system can find the true of source from there.

but after several search around didn't find the perfect one.

any suggestion? through we can write it in Django for sure, but I think this is a common requirement for any company have micro-service inside.

    Disclaimer: I am the founder. Device42 (http://www.device42.com) can help you with that. You can use us as a single source of truth for lot of things in IT ecosystem. We still need to add auto-discovery for FaaS/micro services, but any services that are not "serverless" can be discovered today with the state/user it is running under etc. And you can use REST APIs to automatically add/maintain state information for servlerless services today.
