We’re proud to launch BigPanda’s Future of Monitoring, IT Operations and AIOps survey – a comprehensive, in-depth look at the current state of monitoring and IT Operations, and where the industry is headed.
If you’re part of an IT Ops or NOC team, or if you manage one, you know that overwhelming IT noise is your #1 enemy. Not only does it flood your teams with false-positives, but it also buries critical root-cause events and it makes it hard to proactively detect expensive P1 and P0 outages.
As a Product Manager at BigPanda, I like to stay in touch with our customers on a regular basis. Recently, I visited a customer of ours in Atlanta. As I was getting got out of my rental car in the company’s parking lot, I noticed him pulling in into his small parking space in a very large pickup truck. “Those are some big wheels”, I commented.
It’s always great to get a shout-out from a customer, so I was thrilled to read a post on “Medium” written by our friends at Workday that talks about BigPanda! In the post, Owen Sullivan, Software Development Manager at Workday, discusses how Workday raised their availability SLA from an already industry-leading 99.5% to 99.7%, and how one of the key drivers they see for delivering on this promise is efficient monitoring.
Basically, Machine Learning by itself is dumb, whether its in cars or in ITOps. It needs context and intent to be beneficial. In IT Ops, that means that it requires business context to work properly.
Role-based access control (RBAC) has become one of the main methods for system access control within large enterprises, assigning access to users based on their role in the organization. Employees are allowed to access only those resources that are necessary to effectively perform their assigned job duties.
