Because monitoring machines and monitoring business KPIs are completely different tasks.
It’s no secret that machine learning (ML) has experienced tremendous growth and adoption over the last few years. And why not? This exciting technology has enabled us to utilize the power of machines for a wide variety of applications and industries. From image processing to predicting to medical diagnosis, ML has begun to reshape the way we live.
Every successful company plans for sustainability and growth.

On July 22, 2019, Slack was in the middle of deploying an update to their desktop app. The update was supposed to decrease memory consumption and increase load time, but instead the company suffered a significant, widespread outage on a global scale. After approximately 40 minutes of downtime, the service was back up. But in the meantime, the company whose motto is ‘where work happens’ essentially stopped working.
When you first set up your Anodot account, you create alerts on the KPIs that matter most to you. Advanced alert configurations enable you to define various parameters so that you only get alerts that are important to you: selecting the metric, building a query, grouping the data by dimensions, selecting triggers and conditions, choosing who and where it should be sent to, and so on.
With AI analytics slated as the biggest disruptor to big data and analytics, data leaders are quickly integrating this capability into their data strategy. Itzik Feldman, data engineering manager at Atlassian, the enterprise software company responsible for Jira and Trello, recently credited Anodot with helping keep the company’s 3,000 employees in touch with product performance and customer experience.
