Service Domains are used to define business areas where related services will be made available to users who will consume the services. Different Hornbill Apps have the ability to define their own Service Portfolio and the services that can be offered. Each of these services can then be allocated to a Service Domain. Examples of Service Domains may include IT, HR, and Facilities.
