With the rise of Artifiial Intelligence (AI) and cloud computing, microservices, and containerization, traditional monitoring tools and manual processes are no longer sufficient to ensureperformance, availability, and security. AIOps leverages machine learning, analytics, and automation to enable faster detection, diagnosis, and resolution of issues, as well as proactive prevention of problems before they occur. By analyzing large volumes of data from multiple sources, AIOps canpatterns, anomalies, and correlations that would be difficult or impossible for humans to detect. This can help cloud engineers improve efficiency, reduce downtime, and enhance the overall user experience. In this AI and Cloud era, AIOps and AI-driven monitoring systems are becoming increasingly important for today's complex and dynamic cloud service systems.

health issues and automatically triage, diagnose, and mitigate them. It was first created to solve Azure and Microsoft cloud health and monitoring problems. As we continue to make rapid progress for our internal services, we are also starting to makeavailable for Azure customers. In addition to its intelligent capabilities around anomaly detection, auto triage, and issue prevention, we are also introducing LLM based copilot experience to provide on-call engineers with natural language user interface and a unified intelligence engine to drive AIOps scenarios.
