However, as IT teams become more dispersed and remote or, hybrid working becomes a norm, a single platform that efficiently and effectively fulfills users’ requirements has never been more crucial.
Gartner predicted, by 2020 90% of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) would have been deployed in enterprises through “AIOps” – a combination of machine learning and operations.
