Ensure Your AI is Working for Your Data Team
AI tools hold great promise for DataOps. They can help teams identify the best apps to migrate, identify optimum cloud infrastructure and even validate decisions. But how can an IT team ensure the AI tools it uses are actually advancing its DataOps goals? A hard pill to swallow is that even the best-designed algorithmic decision-making […]
How Systemic Approaches to ITOps Impact the Business Culture
We are at an inflection point in the rise of big data. Enterprise IT infrastructure is producing data at a scale like the world has never seen before. IT operations (ITOps) management has accelerated past the notion of data storage and processing (vis a vis the Hadoop model) and into the world of analytics-as-a-service. We […]

AIOps: How to Solve Performance Issues in Complex Data Pipelines
AIOps takes center stage to topple barriers as modern data application growth accelerates There seems to be a chasm between DevOps and big data teams in the enterprise, and the bridge over that chasm is long and treacherous. In fact, data analysts who are charged with managing and making sense of the growing volumes of […]
How AIOps Makes DevOps Less Noisy
For DevOps engineers, “noise” is the enemy of productivity. In this context, the noise we’re talking about is unnecessary or low-priority alerts and notifications that distract engineers from identifying serious issues—and ultimately can cause alert fatigue syndrome, in which alerting systems are ignored altogether. Without the application of a well-constructed noise reduction plan, alert noise […]
How AIOps Helps You Get More Out of DevOps
DevOps may seem like an overused term. It involves taking an application’s source code and running it in an environment. It can cover the processes, the technology or even the people that maintain the technology that is running those very processes. At its heart, though, DevOps is about helping developers to be self-sufficient when it […]

Unlocking the Power of AIOps
AIOps is becoming quite the hot topic lately. It seems as though everyone is realizing that Ops is difficult. As we have to deal with more big data at greater velocity with more automation and complexity, there is no way humans alone can tame the beast. AIOps seems to be the answer. I recently sat […]
A Vendor Guy Goes To Monitorama
I attended my very first Monitorama this year, in Amsterdam, and I have thoughts! First of all, it’s deeply weird speaking at Monitorama when you work for a vendor in the monitoring and observability space, but you’re not there as a sponsor. This would be pretty odd at the best of times, but the crowd at […]
Rethinking the APM Paradigm: A New Vision for Enterprise Application Monitoring
Traditional APM systems today can’t measure up to tomorrow’s processes IT today is inordinately complex; continually pushing the boundaries and comprehension for even the most sophisticated minds. And while modern IT is unlocking new, innovative experiences and capabilities, the advent of cloud computing and its distributed, ephemeral nature has also made it extremely difficult for […]
Measure What’s Important: DevFinOps
Lately there seem to have been quite a few DevSomethingOps terms being coined. However, I do think we need one more: DevFinOps. Dev-What-Ops? One of the biggest problems in IT is working out the cost of IT. Left unchecked, IT will expand to fill whatever budget it is given. This may mean evermore involved business […]
AIOps: Managing the Second Law of IT Ops
Or, why IT systems keep breaking The tension between the two halves of DevOps is long-standing, going back long before the term was even invented. What underlies the split between Development and Operations is a fundamental difference, like an actual physical law. Let’s explore that analogy together. IT Ops is fundamentally a constant fight against […]
From Waterfall Incident Management to Collaborative IT Operations
What can Ops learn from Dev in the transition from sequential, reactive IT support to real-time DevOps? One of the signature ideas of DevOps is right there in the name: the blurring of the boundary between the historically separate worlds of Development and Operations. On the face of it, this seems like a great idea. […]
Dev & Ops: These Are Reconcilable Differences
The new world of IT requires a different approach from what worked in the past. As usual, the technology is the easy part, but without people and processes being aligned, it won’t deliver value. When evaluating how data science and machine learning can help manage highly dynamic IT environments, old reflexes may be actively harmful. By […]
Site Reliability Engineering: How to Make the Operations Side of DevOps Actually Work
The DevOps movement often has been accused of focusing too much on the first half (Development) and not enough on the second half (Operations). Certainly there has been more attention paid to deployment of payloads than to operating running systems, leading to the dismissal of the handover between Dev and Ops as “throwing it over […]
