AI Agents in IT Operations: From Concept to Practical Value

Artificial intelligence has been a defining theme in IT operations for nearly a decade. Early AIOps initiatives focused on predictive analytics and anomaly detection, promising to reduce operational overhead and improve system reliability. While these capabilities delivered incremental value, they often fell short of transforming how operations actually functioned.

Canonical and Ubuntu RISC-V: a 2025 retro and looking forward to 2026

2025 was the year that RISC-V readiness gave way to RISC-V adoption. It’s been quite a journey. What began years ago as early architectural exploration and enablement has matured into real silicon, systems, and deployments. In particular, RVA23 provides a stable and predictable baseline we can align on with our wider ecosystem of partners. At Canonical, we’re committed to making RISC-V a viable option for anyone who wishes to adopt it.

What is Site24x7 Event Correlation? Causal AI and autonomous IT operations explained

When your distributed system goes down, your team spends days sorting through noise. That is revenue walking out the door. In this video, Jasper Paul breaks down the event correlation engine built to eliminate alert fatigue, and accelerate root cause analysis. Most monitoring tools still rely on basic time-window alert grouping — clustering alerts that fire at the same time and calling it correlation. But in a distributed system, outages are never isolated events. And grouping symptoms doesn't find root causes.

AI can do what now?! What an ethical hacker says about deepfakes and AI

Real-time camera deepfakes are no longer science fiction.

In this episode of AI Can Do What Now?!, Lisa Jones-Huff, director of security solutions architecture at Elastic, sits down with ethical hacker Freakyclown (FC) to explore what is technically possible today with AI, where reality still falls short of the hype, and what security teams should be worried about.
