# Interoperable functions
<a name="interoperable-functions-4"></a>

 The eight management and governance functions, supported by AWS services and AWS Partner solutions, work together and interoperate to reduce complexity. Outputs from these functions are used to inform or integrate with other functions. 

 For service management this includes: 
+  Resources, applications, and accounts provisioned from ITSM tools with embedded **Controls**. 
+  **Network connectivity** designs, including boundaries and isolation, provisioned, updated, and recorded with ITSM tools. 
+  Aligned **Identity and access** **management** across ITSM and AWS tooling. 
+  Incorporating **Security management** runbooks and playbooks with your service management framework. 
+  Aggregating **Monitoring and observability** findings alongside incident management frameworks within ITSM. 
+  ITSM capabilities and configuration libraries aligned to **Cloud Financial Management** reporting and insights. 
+  **Sourcing and distribution** requests initiated from ITSM to support change and incident management.
