Why ITOps Automation Is Hard, Until You Change Your Approach
Automation fails in ITOps because it’s treated as a local efficiency gain rather than a system-level change—an approach that breaks down at scale as AI raises the bar for context, ownership, and control. Modern ITOps environments are hybrid, distributed, and assembled from overlapping vendors and platforms. Services run across clouds and teams. Signals arrive continuously. Dependencies change faster than they can be documented.
