The financial services industry is continuing its acceleration. AI is rolling out across the enterprise, and compliance expectations continue to diverge based on jurisdiction. It’s an unprecedented technology shift to say the least, and the pressure is being felt throughout the IT industry to catch up and remain resilient. More important now than ever before, learn how Auvik provides financial institutions with full network visibility and monitoring that catches problems before they become outages.

Active network infrastructure management is a key element of any managed service offering. Traditionally, network management has involved a lot of tedious manual work, making it expensive and very hard to scale. And that’s why many MSPs have shied away from actively managing the network. But not managing network infrastructure at all is a risk to your business. Your clients likely expect you’re looking after the network whether you’ve promised it or not.

This is the third and final instalment in a series on Here’s What a Network Needs After a Cloud Migration. Part 1 looked at how to redesign the LAN. Part 2 outlined strategies for the Internet connection. One of the things that becomes more important in a cloud-based application environment is managing user access and authentication.

Part 2 in our series on Here’s What a Network Needs After a Cloud Migration. Part 1 looked at how to redesign the LAN. When a company’s application infrastructure moves to the cloud, a reliable Internet connection becomes mandatory. Hiccups in Internet service that might have been an inconvenience when apps were in-house now grind the business to a halt. Unfortunately, the Internet link happens to be the single least reliable element in an IT infrastructure.

By now, most organizations have realized the benefits of moving some, most, or all of their business applications to the cloud. The cloud typically offers better security and performance, at a lower price, than housing resources on-premises. You may have helped them in that migration or you may have been hired after it was complete. Either way, a client with cloud hosting has different network requirements than one whose infrastructure is primarily on-premises.

When alerts come in hot and fast, alert fatigue can quickly set in, overwhelming you with the volume and becoming one of the biggest operational problems for MSPs. Not knowing what to handle first and prioritize in a long list of alerts puts a strain on one of the most valuable resources you have: focus. When your technicians are constantly switching contexts and sifting through a flood of low-priority alerts, it’s asking a lot of them to stay sharp. That constant mental juggling takes a toll.

In G2’s Fall 2025 reports, Auvik earned top recognition as a leader in network management tools across small-business, mid-market, and enterprise categories. IT professionals rated Auvik highly for implementation, usability, results, relationship, and overall Grid® performance, reflecting one thing above all: real-world trust from the IT professionals who use Auvik every day.

When Microsoft rolled out Windows Server 2025 last November, it marked a turning point in how IT teams think about monitoring. Suddenly, AI-powered features like anomaly detection, predictive resolution, and even self-healing aren’t ideas on a roadmap — they’re built into the very fabric of enterprise infrastructure.

The risk of headline-grabbing incidents, like Samsung’s ChatGPT data leak, related to AI usage outside of the authorization and control of IT (a.k.a. shadow AI) is clear. Most IT teams recognize that a high-profile incident can have serious repercussions. However, the risk of shadow AI goes well beyond the risk of a single incident. In fact, the recent Komprise IT Survey indicates that 79% of organizations have experienced negative outcomes from sending corporate data to AI.
