What is AlphaCICE?

  • Think of AlphaCICE (central intelligence correlation engine) as a way of maximizing your data owners operational intelligence, alleviate pain from alert fatigue, reduce wasted time on chasing ghost alerts and more.
  • Minimize false positive, duplicate alerts with AlphaCICE central intelligence correlation engine. AlphaCICE is a custom solution and service offered by Alpha Technologies that is specifically designed for financial industries seeking to take control of their incident management process.
  • Incident Managers can maximize their operational effectiveness through streamlined operationalized workflows, by relying on correlated supervised and unsupervised AIOPS classified intelligence fetched from your already existing monitoring tools.
  • AlphaCICE is explicitly designed to reduce multiple events into a single actionable event that matters most, by empowering data owner operators with prescriptive & AI & ML driven recommendations

Benefits of AIOPS Events Correlation

With AlphaCICE companies can improve  their operational intelligence.

Improved Identification of Incidents

What else can AlphaCICE do?

AlphaCICE can be the instrumental tool for not only for data correlation, but can also be leveraged for data exploration.

Helping data owners discover data prior to consuming the data.

  • AlphaCICE integrates with multiple data sources, and works hand in hand with your existing monitoring tools, accepting input from SIEMs like Splunk, SumoLogic, QRadar and others.
  • In cases where customers already have correlation tools and other SIEMS like SumoLogic, or Splunk then think of AlphaCICE as a service that Alpha Technologies deliver while working with your existing correlation tool.
  • In case where customers are tired of spending a lot of money on the existing tools, think of AlphaCICE as the tool that Alpha Technologies can build for your based on your use case directly in customer’s environment.
  • AlphaCICE also natively integrates with Alpha FusionView making it possible for data owners to see what matters most in a single pane of glass.

Minimizing False Positive Alerts and reducing duplicate Alerts is complicated.

Problem

Incident Managers have hard times deciphering what alerts to follow and what alerts to ignore.

Many data owner operators struggle to keep up with the different types of alerts coming in from different tools.  

Some alerts are critical & some are not.  Knowing which one matters is difficult. Every monitoring tool configured differently.  Incident managers are often flooded with too many alerts with little to no understanding what each of the alerts actually mean.

  1. Incident managers receive too many duplicate alerts and in many cases fall into the alert fatigue trap, chasing false positives.
  2. Existing monitoring tools that companies use often overlap with same type of monitoring conditions, resulting in duplicate alerts being sent from different tools.
  3. When events are received from multiple tools, there is no correlational intelligence that ties these events together into meaningful grouped single actionable event. 
  4. No way of knowing whether or not event is critical and if so to what degree in relationship to potential major incident.
  5. No way of knowing what the root cause is in relationship to multiple events coming from different tools and underlining business service.
  6. No way of knowing what precisely happened around the time of the incident without having to jump into multiple tools.
  7. No intelligent way to rely on a meaningful single correlated actionable alert to streamline post follow up escalation actions.
  8. No way to fully know what to do next in response to specific set of events that are historically repeatable and identifiable.
  9. No correlational patterns to rely upon for gauging what happened in the past in relationship to the presence.

The result, is that incident managers end up spending massive amount of time chasing either problem that don’t exist, or not identifying problems fast enough.

That level of operational ineffectiveness directly translates into loss of revenue, higher risk and waisted time.

Quantifying and classifying events that relate to a problem is difficult

One thing is to identify KPIs relevant to how it relates to a problem, and another is to identify set of multiple KPIs that may contribute to a problem.

Many Monitoring tools on the market focus only on what they do best, yet lack correlational intelligence

Meaning many of the tools may already have correlational functionalities and AIOPS feature sets that makes alerts less duplicate and less false positives, but many of these tools do not exactly correlate events from other tools and only focus on their own ecosystem. 

The result is isolated islands of their own intelligence often overlaid by duplicate events produced by other monitoring tools.

Gaining correlational intelligence requires comprehensive classification of AIOPS Events

Meaning in order to correlate events together,  there must be common denominator, multiple tools need to be tweaked, and AIOPS Events resulted from these tools need to be expressed in the form of that common denominator.   

Yet the problem is, many financial companies do not follow any correlational standards and often also operate in Silos sorts of like the monitoring tools operate in what they do best, where one team is often disconnected from another, resulting in multiple teams creating  their own wild wild west and not exactly creating any type of comprehensive classifications of AIOPS Events, resulting in multiple events floating around in company’s set of monitoring tools without any type of correlated level of of intelligence that can help companies streamline events better.

The result is, unnecessary alerts that wake people up in the middle of the night, and incident managers constantly chasing false positives.

 

 

Classifying AIOPS events into types of intelligence requires strategic comprehensive ITIL based approach.

Many companies do not follow ITIL Best practices, and often end up creating gaps in their own tools, due to not properly utilizing AIOPS feature set functionalities that they may have already heavily invested into. 

Such gaps of invisibility result in missed major incidents. The very same major incidents that could have been discovered if proper ITIL practices were followed and correlational rule sets were configured to correlate multiple types of AIOPS classified events into single actionable event.

 

Changes being done in the environment often result in MIs

Without proper type of  AIOPS Event classification and correlation, incident managers  fall into trap of chasing events that resulted from nothing more, but a typical change, that simply was never factored into correlational rule set, resulting in on call staff being awake for no reason.
