Modernize Ops to Reduce Noise by 90%

Troy Abegglen, Customer Success Manager at Netenrich, was the speaker at a recent webinar entitled, ”Reduce 90 Percent Noise Reduction in just 50 days.” With digital transformation scaling and digital Ops becoming more important and complex than ever, it’s critical for IT teams to reduce noise and improve incident response. He shared insights on digitalization and its impact on Enterprise ITOps, including the advent of AI, automation, microservices, containerization, Big Data, and cloud-native applications. Delivering a seamless digital customer experience with these technologies is now table stakes.

The Tool Problem

Traditional ITOps is finding it extremely difficult to support emerging technologies as they move into their environments. Along with these sweeping technological changes, businesses are implementing an ever-growing suite of tools to manage digital experiences. Which in turn requires more resources, with evolving skill sets to manage these tools effectively. This leads to steadily increased run costs and complexity.

Trying to stitch these tools together with technologies like AIOps and Big Data along with dynamic ITSM platforms, often does not deliver the desired outcomes. Some of the reasons for this are:

• Challenges around managing resources (people) and ensuring they have the right skill sets
• Lack of communication across departments
• Fragmented tools and digital solution implementations

The average enterprise has 13+ tools, with most of them being off-the-shelf integrations. Even with these tools and capabilities, it’s a huge struggle for operations teams to deliver the right outcomes. More tools and more resources lead to massive monitoring noise. Whether it’s a cloud-native app, an infrastructure platform, an ITSM or Sales enablement tool, which provides information on what’s happening in the infrastructure, invariably creates a lot of noise.

IT Credibility – Cost of Not Modernizing

When ITOps is flooded with alerts, it’s hard to determine the priority alerts that need attention. The time it takes to investigate and resolve issues is endless. Organizations want effective and productive operations yet it’s beyond their reach. Much of the time is spent on unproductive ITOps, leading to slower response times and critical issues impacting their business. Tools and technologies are unable to meet the utopian expectations of self-healing and remediation capabilities.

Digital transformation efforts continue to challenge businesses as outages have steadily increased over the past 2 years. Disruption to the business  impacts customers and the bottom line. As businesses lose customers, IT loses credibility. The reality sets that the cost of “not modernizing operations” is too high.
