Watch the video for a quick example of how IBM Watson® AIOps helps IT teams. In this scenario, Watson AIOps responds to an outage incident on an e-commerce site. An IT professional receives a real-time alert in Slack, with an incident report pointing to the problem and potentially affected services. Watson AIOps pulls insights from past incidents and uses a merged event management and application performance management workflow to recommend a solution. The IT professional can then quickly resolve the current issue.
For a deeper dive into how Watson AIOps can help IT teams unlock the solutions hidden in your existing data, try the click-through demo. See how Watson AIOps identifies and gathers signals across a variety of structured and unstructured data channels, including alerts, logs and tickets.

Journey to AIOps

Organizations are increasingly looking for new ways to better manage their risk, reputations and financial performance using AIOps. Evolving teams and organizations do so by taking a prescriptive approach.
Understand: To take advantage of AI and sophisticated analytics, organizations need a solid foundation built with robust tools covering data types like metrics, events and logs. These data sources can provide valuable, real-time ground truth for managing complex applications and systems.
Anticipate: To leverage a strong foundation, organizations can employ tools to gain richer insights across data silos, including AI, machine learning and topology. These tools allow teams to anticipate and address risks proactively, and draw insight from more complex unstructured data
Automate: To build on a foundation enriched with topology, AI and other sophisticated tools, organizations can use automation to further reduce risk and cost, and employ more sophisticated strategies like ChatOps to manage their applications and environments.
