The Service Graph Connector for GCP enables cloud teams to integrate GCP data into the ServiceNow CMDB and ServiceNow workflows quickly, seamlessly, and securely. The Connector is designed with GCP security best practices and built on GCP Cloud Asset Inventory and publish-subscribe technologies. The Service Graph Connector for GCP populates multiple configuration classes, including virtual servers, network infrastructure, and installed software with minimal required credentials. Plug-and-play Service Graph Connectors simplify setup and facilitate quick improvements to business outcomes: reducing costs, automating processes, and optimizing the use of cloud resources.
Key use case: Visibility into cloud resource identities, relationships, and state in near real-time.
- Simplified onboarding experience
- Minimal credentials requirement
- End-to-end data coverage
- No agents or individual scanning required
- Performant at scale
New
- The Project Number field is populated in the GCP Project [cmdb_ci_gcp_project] table.
Changed
- The SG-GCP Organization parent import job for new connections has the Active option set to false by default.
- The parallel loading logic uses resource-type-based parallelism instead of account-based parallelism, improving data load performance in large-scale environments.
- Resource types aren't dynamically populated in the allowlist.
Fixed
- Source Native Keys (SNKs) use a connection alias for discovery.
- GCP virtual machines reflect the correct state.
- Default connection jobs don't display in the Multi Instance Setup Scheduled Import Jobs list.
- Kubernetes Pods don't experience memory issues during soft deletion.
- Key values aren't duplicated across Virtual Machine CIs.
- The Server name is updated when the VM Instance name changes.
- The Availability Zone and Implement Endpoint From VM fields are populated in the L1 relationship for the Storage Volume data source.
- Duplicate storage disk values are loaded without IRE payload errors.
- Soft deletion for Projects Discovery Scope is successful.
- Load errors don't lead to software removal.
- The performance of the Generic Resource job is improved.
- The Import Set Transformer query for the GCPRemoveSoftwareUtil script is optimized.
- The Discovery Credentials attribute mapping doesn't lead to horizontal discovery failures for GCP Cloud Discovery.
