correct. Within a CMDB, these tracked items are known as configuration items (CIs). As defined by ITIL 4, CIs are “any component that needs to be managed in order to deliver an IT service.”

The term commonly used to describe hardware and software assets that are stored in a configuration management database (CMDB) is "Configuration item" (option A). A configuration item refers to any component or element of an IT system that needs to be managed and controlled. It can include physical devices, software applications, databases, network components, and other related items. The CMDB is a central repository that stores information about these configuration items, including their attributes, relationships, and configurations.
