Tanium

Oct 12, 2026

Tanium's new Service Graph for Tanium Atlas connector now sends only what changed to your ServiceNow CMDB; empowering your workflows and automations near real-time data.

Today we’re looking at the new Service Graph Connector for Tanium Atlas. Instead of re-sending your whole inventory every cycle, it detects what changed since the last sync and sends only that - keeping your CMDB current without the load of a full sync every time.

You’ll learn about:
🔄 How Delta Sync works compared to full-inventory syncs
🗺️ How Tanium Gateway feeds data into ServiceNow
🧩 Which connector fits your ServiceNow use cases
🗓️ How to plan full-load, delta, and usage job schedules
🛠️ Why fresher CMDB data improves change and incident decisions
