Scientists estimate that insects account for 80% of all animal life on Earth. It’s no wonder you can’t walk even one foot into a forest without stepping on something crawling or being overwhelmed with buzzing and biting insects. While I am not ready to say that AI based functionality accounts for 80% of a typical […]
Generative AI (genAI) was supposed to quickly disrupt and radically change the way we analyze data using our existing BI tools. Maybe someday, but not yet. Unlike other genAI use cases (e.g., content generation, writing automation, etc), genAI is not disrupting the enterprise business intelligence (BI) software market. Instead, GenAI is adding valuable incremental capabilities, […]

Because they have a better understanding […]
Tools leveraging ML models in dynamic environments must be continuously fed new data in order to adapt to changing conditions and goals. They need to learn as much as possible about their new environments before being fully able and safe to provide service and ultimately deliver value. Synthetic data can help address these and other AI/ML challenges.
“Follow the yellow brick road!” Silly Dorothy. She had it so easy. Dorothy had a magical guide that popped up when she needed help the most. For many executives getting started with forming a data team and an insights strategy, the road forward is not so clear. Executives find themselves bewildered and disoriented in a […]
AIOps is a fast-moving and expanding technology arena that organizations big and small are adopting. The breadth of capabilities under the AIOps umbrella is massive, and the approach and perspectives for implementing it can be confusing. Understanding which vendor supports your perspective is your first step toward a successful AIOps implementation, and this Landscape report provides you with a starting point.
Marketing analytics is the practice of measuring, managing, and analyzing data from marketing initiatives — including channels, programs, campaigns, and tactics — to improve marketing effectiveness and identify opportunities to optimize short- and long-term objectives. You probably already have basic marketing measurement approaches running — whether it’s last-touch or a 30/60/90-day analysis of your email […]

Software takes part in almost everything we do, and yes, we do trust that it works. Yes, sometimes it fails and it drives us nuts, but in most cases, it does what we expect it to do. How have we learned to trust that software works? Through positive experiences with software that meets our expectations. […]
In their quest to become insights-driven, tech execs rely on data literacy programs to change employee behavior. But it takes more to move the needle.
We all see and experience things through the lens of prior travels and encounters. This is no different from the path you choose to move forward with your AIOps implementations.

Definitions can be murky. Our new reports aim to provide clarity and guidance around artificial intelligence for IT operations.
AIOps builds upon observability and monitoring to develop deep AI driven insights that enhance human judgements. As we move from monitoring to AIOps, we also move from a reactive to active, then proactive footing before establishing the predictive capabilities AIOps promises. Biomedical devices function the same way. They use the body's telemetry and then act on it before harm is done.
