From Barking Mad to Best in Show

Unveiling the Power of Closed Loop AI – Good Dog!!

My household recently experienced a paradigm shift, not the technological kind, mind you, but the furry, four-legged, tail-wagging kind.

Yes, a new puppy arrived, and with it, came chaos, laughter, and an unexpected epiphany about the state of IT operations.

As I watched all of us wrestle with the boundless energy of this adorable tornado, I couldn't help but draw parallels to the often-wild world of IT Operations we live in.

To be honest, this article started with i) me getting over the GenAI hype and the endless articles and ii) obsessing about best approach to “train” our new four-legged friend.  Can I fine-tune our dog?  You may think I need help…

So here I am writing another article involving AI, but I won’t preach, and I won’t tell you how transformational this thing is.  You are already hyped, involved, and potentially invested.  I wanted to connect the dots and bring in a new perspective, away from the generic fundamentals of AI with all its forms and benefits.

AIOps and GenAI and other powerful tools and capabilities, brimming with potential, but prone to unruly behaviour and occasional tantrums.

The Traditional AIOps Approach: A Smart Intelligent Pup and a Frustrated Owner

Imagine a puppy that barks incessantly, alerting you to every rustle and shadow, with a modern, futuristic device that pinpoints the source of the commotion. That's the traditional AIOps approach – a deluge of meaningful alerts, often overwhelming, leaving you scrambling to respond and address the root cause.

Frustration mounts as you chase endless priorities and struggle to prioritize the different threats that you can no longer ignore.  Unlike before, you now know what you’re dealing with.  You cannot play the ignorant card because you’re not.  The pup barks, and you're left running and responding because for the first time, you look at your dog and you think to yourself, "I know what you are trying to tell me".

Closed Loop AI: From Barking to Bite-Sized Insights

Enter Closed Loop AI, the seasoned dog trainer who transforms that barking pup into a well-behaved companion.

This is not another form of AI.  This is the integration of AI models with intelligent platforms to help manage and respond automatically across the technology stack to all aspects of IT and security operations.  It's the evolution of traditional AIOps, taking the actionable insights to enrich, assess, and respond to them automatically.  It is also to derive further insights to deliver preventative measures and actions.

Think of it like this: a dog trained in scent detection doesn't just bark at a faint smell, leads you to the sources and alert you to the prohibited substance, it tracks and takes down the bad criminal – It’s a super dog.  That's the power of Closed Loop AI.

The Journey to Closed Loop AI: From Inspiration to Implementation

The concept of Closed Loop AI wasn't a sudden revelation, but rather a gradual evolution, much like training a puppy. It began with a simple question: "How can we make AIOps truly intelligent, proactive, and efficient?"

Digging deep into the limitations of traditional AIOps, identifying the gaps and inefficiencies. We observed how nature, with its intricate feedback loops and self-correcting mechanisms, could be applied to the digital realm.

And voila! Closed Loop AI was born. It's not just a technology; it's a philosophy, a way of thinking about IT operations that prioritises intelligence, automation, and proactive problem-solving.

Perhaps, the most recent application of this concept is the recent announcement of both Tanium and Microsoft.  This is just a little taste of what's to come

‍The Future of IT Operations: Tail Wags and High Fives

Closed Loop AI isn't just a shiny new toy; it's the key to unlocking the true potential of IT operations. Imagine a future where your IT team spends less time firefighting and more time innovating. A future where problems are anticipated and resolved before they impact your business.

Imagine an IT environment that's not just efficient, but also joyful, where teamwork and collaboration thrive, and every problem solved is met with a virtual high five (and maybe a belly rub for your digital watchdog, Closed Loop AI).

Are you ready to ditch the barking madness and embrace the future of Closed Loop AI? Unleash its power, and you'll soon be experiencing the joy of a well-trained IT ecosystem, wagging its metaphorical tail in success.  Reach out to datadust team and we will help you “em bark” on this journey … woof woof!

Remember, the future of IT operations is bright, playful, and full of possibilities. Let's unleash the power of Closed Loop AI and watch it bark its way to success!
