Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)

An initiative in the DMTF, comprising a set of technologies that enable interoperable management of an enterprise.

WBEM consists of CIM, an XML DTD defining the tags (XML encodings) to describe the CIM Schema and its data, and a set of HTTP operations for exchanging the XML-based information. CIM joins the XML data description language and HTTP transport protocol with an underlying information model (the CIM schema) to create a conceptual view of the enterprise.
