Rethinking AIOPs — It's All About the Data

Network Operations is always looking for improvement areas, e.g., how applications are managed and provided to end customers, end-to-end visibility of application and service performance to end customers, anomaly detection for automated pattern discovery and prediction, how to utilize software-driven networks for new business services, along with a host of monetization strategies….to name a few. AIOps is becoming the focal point for driving these projects. However, these are impossible without the ability to provide rich network level data across all lines of business: IT, Enterprise, Fixed Cable, Wireless and Security insights.

  • o See some of the challenges in providing this Gold to AIOps  

  • How high-quality analytics is based on “rich” curated data collected at the source facilitates complex analysis at scale.  Simply put, the quality of data determines the quality of the analytics results

  • How to leverage scalable AI Sensors at the source to reduce data blot by having compact consumable actionable data feeding 3rd Party AIOps

  • What makes AI/ML successful and understanding the is no Silver Bullet.  Every model has a specific behavior

  • We are not Alone….integrating the mined data into the AIOps Ecosystem
