CMM stands for Capability Maturity Model. It is designed basically to ease the process of ranking a company's IT related activities.

Levels of CMM :-
CMM has 6 levels. They are:-
Level 0 – Not Performed : Common for companies that are just entering the IT field.
Level 1 – Performed Informally : Consistent planning and tracking of IT activities is missing and deliverables are accomplished by working long hours in order to build a particular application.
Level 2 – Planned and Tracked : IT deliverables are planned and tracked.
Level 3 – Well-Defined : IT deliverables are repeatable AND transferable across the company.
Level 4 – Quantitatively Controlled : Measurable process goals for each defined process.
Level 5 – Continuously Improving : Enterprises have quantitative and qualitative understanding of each IT process.

Thanks and regards

‘Capability Maturity Model’, developed by the SEI. It’s a
model of 5 levels of organizational ‘maturity’ that
determine effectiveness in delivering quality software. It
is geared to large organizations such as large U.S. Defense
Department contractors. However, many of the QA processes
involved are appropriate to any organization, and if
reasonably applied can be helpful. Organizations can receive
CMM ratings by undergoing assessments by qualified auditors.

Level 1 - characterized by chaos, periodic panics, and
heroic efforts required by individuals to successfully
complete projects. Few if any processes in place; successes
may not be repeatable.

Level 2 – software project tracking, requirements
management, realistic planning, and configuration management
processes are in place; successful practices can be repeated.

Level 3 – standard software development and maintenance
processes are integrated throughout an organization; a
Software Engineering Process Group is in place to oversee
software processes, and training programs are used to ensure
understanding and compliance.

Level 4 – metrics are used to track productivity, processes,
and products. Project performance is predictable, and
quality is consistently high.

Level 5 – the focus is on continuous process improvement.
The impact of new processes and technologies can be
predicted and effectively implemented when required.

We have a directory structure /usr/local/jboss/server/{$app_name}/log/*.log which contains 1000 log files. A web application has been logging to the cloud.log file, the attempts of a user called test. The code logs the following way: log.debug(username); where the username equals “test”. What command line application and or combinations of applications will you call in order to create a file named user_log.csv that contains the following lines, where the timestamp is sorted: timestamp,username
