Understanding IT discovery for ITSM and modern IT stacks

IT discovery is the process of systematically identifying all existing IT components within a tech stack. It involves discovering hardware and software, understanding their configurations, and mapping their interdependencies. Much like your annual doctor visit can proactively identify potential health issues, your IT discovery process can also flag problems and deliver insights to ensure improved operational well-being.

Alert payload standardization: Your secret to better AIOps alert correlation

Monitoring tools share alerts in a variety of formats, with inconsistent data points and crucial information missing. That leaves you and your team stuck in the middle, trying to analyze and act on incomplete or irrelevant alerts requiring lots of manual intervention, time, and energy to communicate and coordinate during incident response. Standardizing your alert payloads is a key starting point if you want to improve your alert correlation.
