In an industry where automation is critical, companies are rising fast and using automation to improve their processes. The pandemic has played a vital role in enabling companies to have the automation that has increased their productivity. We recently had the opportunity to chat with Mr. Srinivas Miriyala from CloudFabrix to understand the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and get its opinion on where the industry is going.

Who is CloudFabrix?

CloudFabrix Software, Inc. is a leading AIOps software company headquartered in Pleasanton, California. It provides insights into application operations across tiers and domains, and helps customers deliver application / infrastructure performance and agility.

This platform leverages the power of advanced analytics, AI, machine learning and automation to analyze data faster, improve efficiency and help companies improve their IT operations. With CloudFabrix, IT teams can gain analytical data, reduce operational costs, resolve problems faster, and even predict or prevent problems.

CloudFabrix was founded in 2015 and has helped Fortune 500 companies

• Diagnose and resolve incidents faster than ever.
• Automate incident diagnosis and resolution workflows.
• Proactively monitor situations and anomalies to prevent IT outages.
• Visualize and compare performance and log data with time synchronization.
• Minimize alarm sounds by up to 90% with context enrichment and correlation.

When asked about the motivation behind CloudFabrix, Srinivas Miriyala has this to say.

“The founders are based in Silicon Valley and have a very strong history of building business applications or platforms. Over time, they have witnessed the development of technology as in the earlier days; it was about network and infrastructure and then about automation at the data center level. Times have changed quickly and now it’s all about data. As companies are digitized, data becomes more and more important. This has added more value to the underlying data and the support that generates the data, which is becoming increasingly important. CloudFabrix is ​​about bringing some of the AI ​​and ML into these domains. In parallel, we can see that the artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies are getting better and better with their algorithms, and bringing these AI and ML technologies into these applications and data gave the vision. “

You Focus on Results CloudFabrix has always focused on improving results. Whether by reducing the number of tickets or generating real-time insights from the IT operating data, their results-oriented approach has led them to success and won over their customers.

Industry disruption

Srinivas remembers how difficult it was in the beginning to find acceptance for their vision at all, as it was only in the last few years that they had begun to have a good effect. CloudFabrix soon realized that data is one of the most important variables for any AI / ML project. Without quality data, none of the algorithms would deliver results. However, the process of providing this data to the system was tedious and time consuming, whether in an AOPS or an ETL system. Many big data companies have failed because they did not understand the complexities of entering data into the system. This is where CloudFabrix worked its magic and launched its AIOps software that revolutionized the industry.

“In the last two years we started with Robotic Data Automation (RDA). This is very new in this area. I mean, people talk about Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and everything, but we took a completely different approach to automating data operations. Factors like how do you collect the data? How do you prepare the data for AIOps? And over time to all AI / ML platforms. And we’ve been using it internally for the past two years but are now making it available for other initiatives too so it can work with other platforms. So I think this is likely to be a big breakthrough in this area. And we’ve been seeing these results for the past four or five months. When we started talking about this aspect there was a lot of interest and people are realizing that this is an area that people need to automate for any successful AI / ML implementation. “

The CloudFabrix USP

Asset visibility

In addition to data automation, CloudFabrix is ​​focused on getting companies to understand their IT assets and how they relate to one another. This becomes an integral part of AIOps or ITSM processes. Here is what Srinivas had to say.

“We have built-in asset intelligence that helps clients understand their assets and dependencies. We can provide this module automatically and not only provide additional support for new cases, but also help with better AIOps implementation. “

Minimize alarm noises

“One problem facing the industry is that many applications and infrastructures are traditional tools that are rule-based. But the way the monitoring tools are designed tend to generate these warning signs, or so-called warnings, and there is a lot of volume. it is very difficult for them to say which are real and which are actionable. This is one of the weak points in how we use AI / ML algorithms to suppress noise. Only superficial and actionable insights are provided in a very simple way, which tends to save a lot of time. “

Reactive to prediction

The idea here is to help customers by looking at some historical data and being able to predict any problems before they occur. Then give them an opportunity to avoid these problems.

The future of CloudFabrix

Idolizing data as the next big thing, it’s no surprise that CloudFabrix attributes its success to harnessing the true value of data. As the market moves towards data automation, Mr. Miriyala suspects that this will become even more important in the coming years. Modern innovations such as the use of 5G technologies, Edge and IOT will also have an impact on how we use data and manage our resources. He also suspects that these large data sources will become more difficult to manage, and this is where CloudFabrix will come into its own.
