Virtual environments have rapidly become common in today’s data centers. While they are essential to business application management, they have outpaced the conventional approach to data center optimization. These new environments are too complex for traditional IT silos, and as a result, IT managers’ time is spent finding and fixing application performance issues, rather than […]

The volume/scope of data that businesses produce and IT pros have to manage has grown rapidly. Managing this onslaught of data can hinder IT productivity, especially when they are hampered by traditional tools and old school approaches. The exponential growth of virtual IT infrastructures in both scale and complexity is pushing IT teams to their […]

When end-users report slow performance in business-critical applications, IT teams everything to fix the problem as quickly as possible. In virtual environments, where the root causes of problems are rarely straightforward, they may spend days trying and testing multiple different solutions. Troubleshooting this way creates a huge drain on IT time and resources – and even occasionally, […]

Machine Learning Provides the Answers The newest data science approach to managing and optimizing virtual infrastructures applies the AI discipline of machine learning (ML). Rather than monitoring individual components in the traditional computer science way, ML tools analyze the behavior of interrelated components. They track the normal patterns of these complex behaviors as they change […]

You may think that the words “artificial intelligence” or “machine learning”  sound like trendy buzzwords. In reality, much of the hype about this technology is true. Unlike past periods of excitement over artificial intelligence, today’s interest is no longer an academic exercise. Now, IT has a real-world need for faster solutions to problems that are too […]

Right-Sizing VMware Environments with Machine Learning According to leading analysts, today’s virtual data centers are as much as 80 percent overprovisioned – an issue that is wasting tens of thousands of dollars annually. The risks of overprovisioning virtual environments are urgent and immediate. IT managers face a variety of challenges related to correctly provisioning a […]

Why do businesses need AIOps? IT pros move more of their business-critical applications into virtualized environments. As a result, finding the root cause of application performance issues is more complicated than ever.  IT managers have to find problems in a complex web of VM applications, storage devices, network devices and services. These components that are […]

This is the first post in a two-part series. We are highlighting how AIOps is changing IT performance optimization. The original text of this series appeared in an article on Information Management. During the next two years, companies are set to spend $31.3 billion on cognitive systems tools. Today, companies are using tools based on these technologies (i.e., […]
