Q & A

What is artificial intelligence used for in IT operations?

Artificial intelligence is used in IT operations for things like predictive analysis, pattern recognition, autonomous systems, and conversational systems like chatbots. It helps with network problem classification, optimization, and prediction.

How does the OmniVista Network Advisor solution work?

OmniVista Network Advisor uses machine learning to continuously monitor the network, detect potential issues, and provide remediation suggestions through a chatbot interface. It aims to minimize network risks, improve quality of experience, and free up IT teams' time.

What are the main capabilities of the OmniVista Network Advisor?

The three main capabilities are: identify network anomalies and understand normal behavior using machine learning; resolve network issues by providing one-click remediation suggestions; and optimize the network for better quality of experience.

What network equipment can OmniVista Network Advisor monitor?

It can monitor ALE's OmniSwitch LAN switches and OmniAccess WiFi access points. In the future it will also be able to monitor network telemetry data from these devices.

How are alerts sent to IT teams?

Real-time notifications are sent to IT teams via Rainbow chatbots using Adaptive Cards. This allows for collaboration and instant responses.

How does OmniVista Network Advisor simplify troubleshooting?

It detects issues and automatically recommends collecting relevant log data from network devices. Teams can then easily download these logs to analyze the root cause.

What security threats can the solution detect?

It can currently detect over 40 network anomalies, including some security threats like DDoS attacks. More detection capabilities will be added over time.

How will machine learning be used to enhance capabilities?

Machine learning will be used to establish a baseline of normal network behavior. Any deviations from this can be detected proactively and predictively to flag issues before they impact users.

What is the licensing model?

It is a yearly subscription model based on the number of monitored devices - either per switch or access point, or per stack.

What is the Early Adopter program?

It allows clients to use OmniVista Network Advisor for free for 1 year. ALE collects feedback to help evolve the offering rapidly as it is a new software solution.
