Understanding AI Ops: Part 1

Think about this question. How can we start to make use of AI/ML if you are not a developer or data scientist? How about applying these capabilities to the discipline of IT or Cloud Operations. In this two-part blog, I am going to explore the problem and the opportunity that exists in the emerging area known as AIOps, some of the tools that can help, and what I think the future looks like in this area.

My Background

My role in VMware is all about Cloud and Cloud Management. My conversations are usually with people who care about building, running, or managing applications in public and private clouds and care about everything that's required to do so. That led me to think about how AI is going to affect these people and what opportunities it creates for different roles, specifically in the IT and Cloud Ops space.
