When we think of computers, we typically think in terms of exactness. For example, if we ask a computer to do a numeric calculation and it gives us a result, we are 100% sure that the result is correct. And if we write an algorithm and it gives an incorrect result, we know we have coded improperly and it needs to be corrected. This exactness however, is not the case when dealing with Machine Learning. As a matter of fact, it is par for the course, that Machine Learning will be incorrect a percentage of the time.
Companies can take big strides toward “preventing preventable” incidents by minding what they measure. What’s in a name? In Measuring what matters, one of the panels at our RESOLVE ‘22 event, the three words in the title reflect a plan successful IT Ops teams have embraced to reduce the complexity of their reporting systems—resulting in a faster path for companies to make more effective use of all the IT resources at their disposal.

We welcomed Insurity’s Lead Cloud Operations Performance & Monitoring Admin, Ronnel Vergara, to take the stage and talk over this high-level topic at our event.
