AIOps and how it helps in IT operations
AI is a hot topic everywhere and, unlike previously, lots of people now really understand the meaning of AI and how it is applied in real-life scenarios or use cases. Before jumping right to AIOps, we first need to set the context by understanding AI and ML.
AI is the broadest term and has been around for decades as a research topic. AI allows a computer to perform any task that normally requires human intelligence. ML is a subset of AI that solves specific tasks by learning from patterns and data and making predictions without explicitly being programmed. This phrase of explicitly being programmed is the key factor that translates some huge opportunities to transform how we do IT operations today. ML is one approach to AI, recently popular due to big data and cheap compute through cloud computing. Broadly, there are two types of ML algorithms:
- Supervised learning algorithms take the raw data that you are inputting, and they also...
