Just got a perspective working with a SQL tile to pull in information from my CMDB database to show server information such as The Primary owner, Backup Owner, and Patch Window. That works perfect what I want to add into the perspective though is a hyper link to the portal to update the information along with some text saying some think like if this information is incorrect click here to update it. What would be the best way to do that I was thinking of an HTTP Tile would that be correct.

You could make the URL dynamic by adding the URL from the information you pull from the database.
If you select the SQL grid tile you have a section called grid options. There you can enter an url and add information from the database. For example mycmdb.com/{{idfromdatabse}} then that sql tile will be clickable and you can get to the exact url to update the cmdb.
