Product overview
IBM® Maximo® Asset Management is an integrated productivity tool and database that helps you manage all of your asset types
on a single software platform. Built on a service-oriented architecture (SOA), Maximo Asset Management delivers a
comprehensive view of all asset types, their conditions and locations, and the work processes that support them, to provide you
with optimal planning, control, audit, and compliance capability.
IBM Maximo Asset Management Multitenancy creates a separation of the Maximo database to enable multiple independent
tenant entities to co-exist in the same instance of the Maximo database. Individual tenants within a IBM Maximo Asset
Management Multitenancy environment can maintain their own data, configurations, workflows and reports. IBM Maximo Asset
Management Multitenancy is intended for use, primarily, by hosting companies that want to reduce IT infrastructure costs. IBM
Maximo Asset Management Multitenancy, version 7.6, has a separate installation program from Maximo Asset Management and
does not support earlier versions of industry solutions. After you perform a multitenancy installation, you cannot revert to a
non-mulititenancy deployment. Learn more about multitenancy
