Cast AI, the leading Application Performance Automation platform, today announced that it was recognized in the Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for AI in IT Operations, research that profiles the core technologies underpinning the transformative impact of AI within enterprise IT operations.
Gartner Hype Cycles are graphic representations of the maturity and adoption of technologies and applications, and how they are potentially relevant to solving real business problems and exploiting new opportunities. Cast AI has been recognized as a Sample Vendor in the Autonomous Workload Optimization category.
According to Gartner analysts Pankaj Prasad, Manjunath Bhat, Hassan Ennaciri:
“Optimizing IT costs has always been on infrastructure and operations (I&O) leaders’ agendas. Additional pressures include becoming energy efficient while ensuring optimal performance to customers. For the results to be impactful, this must be done at scale while dealing with the trade-offs required to optimize across the dimensions of cost, performance, and energy. The scale and trade-off challenge is better addressed via autonomous operations and algorithms.”
The business impact of Autonomous Workload Optimization solutions is significant. Autonomous workload optimization tools maximize performance while minimizing resource consumption through three key approaches: optimizing the utilization of compute, network and storage resources; fine-tuning the configuration of underlying runtime platforms; and dynamically adjusting workloads based on sustainability, reliability and cost considerations.
“We believe this recognition underscores Cast AI’s commitment to helping DevOps teams cut their cloud costs, improve application performance, and increase efficiency with its Application Performance Automation platform”, said Laurent Gil, Cast AI’s co-founder and President.
