CIM Formats

Close Search CIM Formats We have developed the Cloud Information Model (CIM) with a standards-based approach and translated it into multiple formats. This approach enables businesses with varying technologies to adopt CIM.

It also empowers contributors and fosters growth for a larger CIM ecosystem. CIM supports the following standard file formats. Format File Description Standard JSON-LD concepts.json Conceptual description of the entities and relationships in the model RDF Schema JSON-LD schema.json Canonical data shapes and additional contstraints SHACL JSON-LD schema.rdml Mapping from the relational schema to an RDF graph R2RML YAML concepts.yaml AML human-readable version of the conceptual model AML Vocabulary YAML schema.yaml AML human-readable version of the canonical data shapes AML Dialect YAML schema.raml AML human-readable version of the canonical data shapes RAML data types JSON schema.json JSON Schema for the canonical data shapes JSON Schema SQL DDL schema.sql SQL DDL statements for the canonical shapes SQL 2008 The Full CIM Distribution in our Available Formats Click on one of our available formats to download the complete CIM definition.
