Today’s IT landscape is complex, hybrid, and fast-moving, and the adoption of multi-cloud infrastructure, applications, and new digital transformation initiatives is accelerating. IT operations teams, playing a vital role in enabling the delivery of uninterrupted services and creating business value for enterprises, are finding they need to constantly grow their resources to manage all the moving pieces in their IT stack. This can get expensive … but how much are they spending?

“Morning, mate,” I greeted Dinesh as he walked into the office. “Nice get up for the big day!” He was wearing a pressed shirt, rather than his usual hoodie. “Thought I’d make an effort, you know,” he grinned. We’d been planning intensely for this moment for the last week or so – our meeting with Charlie, the CIO, to present the results of our Moogsoft experiments and ask for permission to extend the rollout across the enterprise.

Last week DevOps Institute’s Chief Ambassador, Helen Beal, and Moogsoft’s own Chief Evangelist, Richard Whitehead, continued to follow the exploits of DevOps Engineer Sarah and her journey towards AIOps and Observability enlightenment.

People around the world depend on Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to keep their businesses running like clockwork, even as their IT infrastructure evolves. Keeping workflows efficient leads to higher profits, but this can be a challenge due to a mix of on-premise infrastructures, public and private cloud, and other complex customer environments. The shift to remote work in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic has only made this more challenging for MSPs.

Here we are a full quarter into 2021, a year that took off in a huge way for us, and the momentum continues to grow strong. March was a monumental month, and now it’s a wrap. We released significant updates across the board in almost all areas of Moogsoft, including pushing innovation to newfound levels when it comes to the ease of integrating your metric and event data.

This is the fourth in a series of blog posts exploring the role that intelligent observability plays in the day-to-day life of smart teams. In this post, Sarah and company discover how AIOps gives them "the time to save time!"
