Core concepts

This section introduces the fundamental concepts that support the configuration and management of a CMDBuild installation. It provides an overview of the main elements that structure the Administration Module and describes how Administrators interact with the system during daily operations.

The following chapters guide the Administrator through the essential areas of the platform:

  • the overall responsibilities and capabilities of system administration
  • the structure and behaviour of the user interface
  • how to access the Administration Module and navigate its main functions
  • the dashboard displayed upon accessing the module, which summarizes system status and key configuration metrics

Together, these topics offer a clear foundation for understanding how CMDBuild is organized, how the administration environment works and how Administrators can efficiently operate and maintain the system.
