What Is a Service?
A Service is an integrated entity that consists of several components, such as management processes, hardware, software, facilities, and people, that provide a capability to satisfy a stated management need or objective. An IT Service is made up of a combination of assets and configuration items and can be defined in a Service Level Agreement. An IT service ranges from access to accessing a single application, such as a ledger system, to a complex set of facilities including many applications that are spread across several hardware and software platforms. The key benefit of using services to manage IT is that you can easily see when incidents affect configuration items. These incidents, problems, and requests contribute to the metrics that you can view on in the Service Pulse workspace.

Service View provides IT Managers with access to the key metrics of the IT services in their organization for a selected time period. To access Service View, navigate to WORKSPACES, WORKSPACES> SERVICE PULSE, PULSE> Service View. Service view allows you to define a service and view the metrics for that service. These metrics provide an actionable insight into the performance of the service that helps IT Managers meet their service objectives.

Service view displays data based on a scheduled job, which runs in the background at a fixed periodic interval (24hrs). The data displayed under the service view is not real-time data and it is updated as a result of the background job. The data related to the adoption and performance of a service contributes to the metrics displayed on in the service view.
Note: These metrics are not configurable. For the bamboo release, there is no option to add new metrics or modify the existing ones. Also no customizations are available for these metrics, which means you cannot select what metrics appear on service view.

For more information about this configuration parameter, see SLA Business Service Identifier Classes.
