In today's corporate landscape, procurement extends beyond traditional departmental boundaries. With various business units making independent procurement decisions based on their unique contexts, the role of procurement evolves into one of mentorship and guidance. It aims to ensure organizational alignment and mitigate avoidable risks. Inevitably, errors, policy breaches, and frauds may occur. Establishing a robust and continuous spend monitoring mechanism becomes paramount in this context. Such a mechanism empowers procurement teams to remotely oversee every transaction, intervening only as necessary.
But how does one implement live monitoring of transactions to detect anomalies effectively? Join us as we delve into this topic with Ammar, Product Owner of Cognitive Procurement at Digitate. Gain insights into practical strategies and best practices for implementing proactive spend monitoring, enabling cost control without compromising risk management.

AIOps is an integral part of the autonomous enterprise, and closed-loop automation is an integral part of AIOps 

In today's competitive business landscape, automation is essential for modernizing IT operations, improving efficiency, reducing costs, and enhancing agility and security. And mere process automation is no longer enough to keep up with a fast-changing world. AI-powered automation is an indispensable next step because it facilitates rapid data analysis, predictive capabilities, proactive remediation, and freeing up human resources for innovation.
Join us for an enlightening session where our experts delve into closed-loop automation by Digitate. This AI-driven continuous feedback process involves monitoring systems, analyzing data, autonomously identifying, and resolving issues, and alerting users, all aimed at maintaining or enhancing performance with minimal manual intervention. Learn how this approach also enables informed decision-making by providing relevant information. Our discussion will cover various IT automation use cases, including infrastructure, applications, cloud operations, SAP operations, batch management, and the digital workspace.

Closed-loop automation for the autonomous enterprise

Big data is a big deal!
With increasing focus on digitization and observability, organizations across the world are generating millions of terabytes of new data every day to capture different aspects of business, applications, and infrastructure. Yet there is a huge gap in using that data to derive analytics-driven insights and an even bigger gap in making those insights available and accessible to decision-makers. Digitate offers “AI-powered insights” as a modern take to bridge this gap. 

AI-powered insights are the result of applying data mining and machine learning techniques to automatically generate meaningful insights from the data and enable the business users to make data-driven decisions. They hide the technical complexity of machine learning models and algorithms, while translating nerdy analytical observations into meaningful insights and actionable recommendations. This process is driven by levers such as automated data quality assessment, model-driven reasoning, use of ensemble algorithms, explainable intelligence, and clever ways of bringing humans into the loop. 

Join this webinar to explore this modern space of automated insights and how it can enable smarter decision-making in aspects of IT operations including performance and capacity management, event and incident management, risk mitigation, cloud optimization, batch process management, and business health monitoring.

Observability projects have recently gained traction across enterprises, in an effort to improve visibility across modern multi-cloud environments and help resolve issues faster, ensuring business resilience. Unfortunately, most existing observability tools fall short due to discrepancies in data availability, as well as shortcomings of the tools themselves.
To be truly effective and comprehensive, observability needs to adopt a flexible approach for data collection across infrastructure layers and cloud service models, link IT metrics with business goals, and provide actionable intelligence, not just data analytics. At Digitate we call this approach “unified observability,” a unique capability to help enterprises gain visibility and control across the business-applications-infrastructure layers.
Join Digitate product manager and observability evangelist Monika Bhave and VS Joshi to discuss the core concepts of unified observability, why it is a must-have for every modern enterprise, and how it impacts both business and IT teams.
 During the webinar, you’ll learn:
• The core concept behind unified observability
• Challenges with traditional observability 
• How unified observability fits into existing IT ecosystems
• How business teams can leverage unified observability
• How unified observability helps IT teams to be proactive

Traditional infrastructure monitoring that simply monitors databases, servers, network, and other infrastructure components is just not enough! 

Retail businesses heavily rely on the customer experience they deliver, and IT operations play a strategic role in this.  

In the past two years, millions of people around the world have changed their shopping patterns. They’re looking harder for bargains, developing new hobbies and tastes, exploring unfamiliar retailers as old brand loyalties weaken or supply chain problems bite. Consumers are shifting away from their primary store and more customers are trying BOPIS (Buy Online, Pickup in Store). 

The modern-day retailer needs to predict outages in advance and act proactively before any incident occurs. They need actionable insights from the entire IT infrastructure to ensure optimum uptime and performance of the applications such as e-commerce websites, point of sale, order management systems, and more. End-to-end monitoring of customer-facing applications and the associated infrastructure help retailers to rapidly resolve performance problems.

Join us in this webinar to understand how Business Health Monitoring can help a retail business leader to understand and link different server/database/network components with respective retail outlets, deep down to their specific business functions, such as warehouse, e-commerce website, transactions, and more.
