causing a representation of the first database to exist within the configuration management database system in a form of a staging table, and

causing the representation to be translated via a transform map from the staging table into a configuration management database format compatible with the configuration management database system.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

interfacing, by the computing system, with one or more streaming data platforms to present the information associated with the data lake to one or more end users.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein interfacing, by the computing system, with the configuration management database system to present information associated with the first database comprises:

establishing a connection between the computing system and the configuration management database system via a Java database connectivity (JDBC) connection.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein retrieving, by the computing system, the first set of data related to software resources executing across the plurality of virtualization elements comprises:

periodically pulling software package data from the software resources executing across the plurality of virtualization elements.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating, by the computing system, the first database comprises:

filtering the first set of data related to the software resources to include information requested by a user.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

retrieving, by the computing system, a new delta update related to the hardware resources associated with the plurality of virtualization elements; and

pushing, by the computing system, data in the new delta update to the configuration management database.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein pushing, by the computing system, the data in the new delta update to the configuration management database comprises:

updating the first database with the data contained in the new delta update; and

causing the data contained in the new delta update to be translated and included in the configuration management database.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising one or more sequences of instructions, which, when executed by one or more processors, causes a computing system to perform operations comprising:

identifying, by the computing system, a plurality of virtualization elements executing on a cloud computing environment, the plurality of virtualization elements comprising one or more of a plurality of containers or a plurality of virtual machines;

retrieving, by the computing system, a first set of data related to software resources executing across the plurality of containers or the plurality of virtual machines;

retrieving, by the computing system, a second set of data related to hardware resources allocated to the plurality of virtualization elements;

retrieving, by the computing system, delta updates to the first set of data, wherein the delta updates are retrieved in real-time;

generating, by the computing system, a first database comprising the first set of data related to the software resources, the second set of data related to the hardware resources associated with the plurality of virtualization elements, and the delta updates;

transmitting the first set of data, the second set of data, and the delta updates to a data lake separate from the first database,

wherein the delta updates are transmitted to the data lake in real-time, and

wherein the data lake is user-accessible through one or more application programming interfaces; and

generating, by the computing system, a configuration management database separate from the first database and the data lake, the configuration management database hosted by a configuration management database system to present information associated with the first database by:

causing a representation of the first database to exist within the configuration management database system in a form of a staging table, and

causing the representation to be translated via a transform map from the staging table into a configuration management database format compatible with the configuration management database system.

9. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , further comprising:

interfacing, by the computing system, with one or more streaming data platforms to present the information associated with the data lake to one or more end users.

10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein interfacing, by the computing system, with the configuration management database system to present information associated with the first database comprises:

establishing a connection between the computing system and the configuration management database system via a Java database connectivity (JDBC) connection.

11. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein retrieving, by the computing system, the first set of data related to software resources executing across the plurality of virtualization elements comprises:

periodically pulling software package data from the software resources executing across the plurality of virtualization elements.

12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein generating, by the computing system, the first database comprises:
