Discover continuously
Model change as the normal condition. Signals arrive from many sources without pretending they agree.
Next-generation configuration intelligence
Your infrastructure has a state.
Make it legible.
RootState is a relationships-first CMDB with provenance by default and a living model that explains what changed—not merely what exists.
- Relationships first
- Evidence attached
- Designed for change

The approach
A CMDB for systems that refuse to stay still.
Inventory is the easy part. RootState answers the harder questions: how objects relate, where facts came from, what changed, and which version of reality deserves trust.
Connect the context
Treat relationships as first-class data so services, identities, infrastructure, and ownership make sense together.
Explain the state
Carry provenance and history with every fact. Trust should be inspectable, not implied by a green badge.
The operating model
From noisy signals to useful state.
-
01
Observe
Collect source facts without erasing their origin.
-
02
Reconcile
Resolve identity, confidence, and conflict explicitly.
-
03
Explain
Expose current state, relationships, and change history.
A design principle
“A configuration record without provenance is just an opinion wearing a timestamp.”
Every fact carries its source, confidence, relationships, and history.
