Services

We use experience from each of our areas of expertise (data science, data engineering, devops) to offer both advisory and implementation services, to our clients.

Also we offer blend of those 3 areas of expertise which are an integral part of building production ready SMART solutions: our data science team will develop algorithms and models, the data engineering team will work closely with the data science team to choose the right tools and figure out the best possible way to crunch data and then our DevOps team will carefully choose the right infrastructure according to all requirements, add automation, monitoring and testing.

AIOps Adoption

We combine technologies for gathering data from infrastructure, applications and security assets with automation capabilities. We help you incrementally deploy AIOps across IT operations-oriented machine learning.

We bring together cybersecurity experts, data scientists, network architects and developers for tailored solutions with impact on app performance monitoring, DevOps and microservices data monetization. You get fast delivery and less complex problems, in a stable operating environment.

AIOps can be applied in the following fields:

01. Analytics: Provide interactive dashboards and dynamic visuals for data analysis.
02. Anomaly detection: Detect abnormal behavior in system metrics, services, user activity and others.
03. Predictive analytics: Determine future trends for metrics based on past values.
04. Events Clustering: Cluster Events for easier using various techniques including neural feedback.
05. Automated RCA: Automatically detect with increasing accuracy the root cause of incidents

  • Advice – We help you incrementally deploy AIOps across the four phases of IT operations-oriented machine learning: visualization and statistical analysis, automated pattern discovery, pattern based prediction, and root cause analysis. We have proven use cases for the automation of application, infrastructure and security operations with machine learning.
  • Implement – Building on our Infrastructure Monitoring services, we bring powerful analytics capabilities to help you analyze the deepest corners of your infrastructure. By applying Machine Learning capabilities to the gathered data, patterns and anomalies can be detected to offer you new insights and alerts for action, while saving you time and resources for manual work.
  • Optimize – In our AIOPs journey we improve the integration of data streams from previously siloed sources. With our custom use cases, we can build and apply algorithms to particular business situations.

Advisory Services

We choose advisors carefully since we believe that people holding such a position in our team need to have necessary technical knowledge, business sense and broad experience in working with different technologies and in different cases. Being a service-oriented company, we are able to address numerous different problems and we strive to leverage our team knowledge to help you achieve your business goal, through architecture blueprint, data strategy or reviews of your existing AI or data engineering solution.

  • Architecture review – One of our advisors will work closely with your tech team to find the bottlenecks of your current architecture. The output of this engagement is a review document with all the problems and a roadmap showing the paths to fixing them.
  • Architecture blueprint – If you want to build a data lake, a new backend for IoT, a recommender engine which works in real time on streaming data, one of our advisors can work with you and gather all the requirements (functional and non-functional) and create a blueprint of the architecture which best fits those requirements.
  • Specific technology / tool review – you managed to set up and install certain technology, but you want to double check whether it is production ready or not. If it is one technology which is our area of expertise we can do review and suggest improvement and changes with severity level.
  • Data strategy – Creating a modern data-intensive application requires careful planning since core functionalities are built around data itself. Our advisor will work closely with you to gather all business and non-functional requirements. The results are roadmaps for your organization, focused on achieving near-term business benefits and creating a platform for future innovation.
  • Data science algorithm review – You have an algorithm (model) but you are not satisfied with the results. We can take the code and your business requirements and analyze the current implementation and return our feedback. The output is a document with the feedback and suggestions for improvements.
  • Business insight as a service – You have a vast amount of data, you know there is a value in it but you do not know how to exploit it effectively. We can sit down with you and gather the requirements, analyze your data and come with a report and possible implementation ideas.
