AIOps Foundation - Accredited

While we always recommend learners attend our live, virtual training, we understand that time constraints don't always make that possible. This course will soon be available to self-study.  Please click here for more information. 

Join us to gain a solid understanding of the benefits of implementing AIOps in your organization, including its role in digital transformation, and how it supports and enhances complementary approaches such as DevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE).

AIOps Foundation covers the origins of AIOps, including the history behind the term, patterns that preceded it, and the technology context in which it has evolved. Candidates will gain an understanding of the processes of combining big data analytics, machine learning algorithms, automation, and optimization into a single platform.

This course addresses the foundational concepts of AIOps along with its core technologies: big data and machine learning. AIOps Foundation validates learners’ understanding of how and why digital transformation, together with the evolution of machine learning, have brought about the rise of AIOps as an indispensable tool in today’s IT Operations landscape. Core technologies of machine learning and big data are discussed, as well as the basic concepts of artificial intelligence, different types of machine learning models that can be implemented, and the relationship between AIOps, MLOps, DevOps, and Site Reliability.

Course culminates with an independent exam. Successfully passing (65%) the 60-minute exam, consisting of 40 multiple-choice questions, leads to the AIOps Foundation Certificate.  

Class also includes experiential exercises, GAME ON! An Interactive Learning Experience^® and access to ITSM Academy's Learner Portal.
