Unlocking Automation: A New IDC Report on Automation Standardization

Innovation in automation is transforming what’s possible in operational dynamics at an unprecedented pace. For modern enterprises, this shift is not just a technological evolution; it’s a strategic imperative.

The human element of implementing AIOps

When implementing new tech, the challenges don’t end at tool selection, purchase, and initial deployment.

Many teams look to AIOps solutions like BigPanda to reduce noise, improve workflows, and resolve incidents faster through AI and automation. Bringing in a new platform is part of the equation. The other part is organizational change management to support platform adoption.

Enhancing Postmortem Reports with AI

Postmortem reports are essential in incident management, helping teams learn from past mistakes and prevent future issues. Traditionally, creating these reports was a slow, tedious process, requiring teams to gather data from multiple sources and piece together what happened.
