We live in a time where technology advancement occurs at a breakneck pace. With each new technology added to the tech stack, complexity increases and environments evolve. Additionally, IT teams are expected to deliver business services in production faster, with quick and effortless problem remediation or, ideally, proactive problem identification. All this can make it extremely challenging for IT to keep up with the demands of the business while maintaining forward progress. That, in turn, can make it increasingly critical for IT executives to find, train, and retain highly qualified IT staff.

Generative AI emerged as one of the hottest technological topics in 2023 and it looks to be accelerating in 2024 as companies build out their strategies for adoption. While AI-generated artwork, videos, and text have grabbed headlines on the topic, the use of generative AI to create insights from business data is an exciting application of this new technology. The January 2024 release of enhancements to the BMC AMI suite of solutions includes generative AI to provide insight for BMC AMI zAdviser users with recommendations for DevOps.
