What is trending in AIOps?

The report identifies the following three AIOps market trends:

1. AIOps is a capability within observability.

AIOps provides meaning to data from observability. By processing observability data, AI helps improve the quality and availability of services and applications. The result ensures systems are resilient with high uptime.

2. AIOps will expand atop observability.

DevOps, site reliability engineering, and chaos engineering continue to grow in adoption across IT organizations. Each of these modern ways to plan, deploy, release, operate, and monitor applications and services benefit from AIOps.

3. AIOps’ promise of anomaly detection is attractive.

AIOps can help an organization shift from the reactive way of responding toward proactive management of applications and services, as it moves toward a “cloud-native” future.
