Secure, Resilient, Intelligent: Smarter observability for the modern DevOps

Full-stack observability
that drives intelligent automation 

Modern stacks demand full-layer visibility and AI-driven automation to predict risks and keep apps resilient.

Modern environments are complex. Full-stack observability links performance, reliability, and risk insights across layers. Paired with automation, it empowers DevOps teams to move from detection to resolution faster. This improves resilience, reduces toil, and accelerates mean time to resolve across hybrid cloud and distributed systems. 

Observability: Where to start
Observe and fix issues fast

Gain high-fidelity, contextualized, full-stack observability; track and optimize the DevOps lifecycle; and enable proactive remediation through trend analysis and visualization.

Intuitive resource optimization

Recommend actions for continuous resilience across hybrid and public clouds, driven by correlate data from multiple tools for real-time insights.

Automate remediation at scale

Use AI-driven workflows to remediate vulnerabilities and performance issues automatically, applying repeatable runbooks to reduce toil.

Eliminate blind spots

Continuously discover and track all servers, containers, and cloud resources across environments. Account for assets to identify and patch critical vulnerabilities before they put your systems at risk.

Turn complexity into clarity with AI-driven observability

Hybrid and multi-cloud architectures, containers, and microservices create fragmented visibility. Siloed tools force teams to context-switch, slowing root cause analysis and release confidence. 
Unified, full-stack observability delivers full-stack correlation and real-time topology mapping, providing a single operational view across dynamic environments for faster RCA and operational clarity.

Engineers waste time triaging alerts and patching systems manually, even with automation frameworks in place. This slows recovery and increases operational risk. 
AI-driven observability enables closed-loop automation and AI-assisted remediation, detecting issues, applying policy-checked fixes, and verifying outcomes autonomously to reduce downtime and eliminate repetitive toil.

DevOps success depends on data, yet teams struggle to connect deployment metrics with business outcomes. This limits continuous improvement and accountability. 
AI-driven analytics provide unified metrics across the lifecycle and real-time feedback loops, connecting technical performance with business impact to guide optimization and continuous improvement.
