Why most AIOps initiatives stall — and the pattern that breaks through

Most AIOps initiatives stall at smarter dashboards. Bhavik Adhvaryu has seen this pattern across leading enterprise Kubernetes platforms. Teams invest in observability, add anomaly detection, and plateau.

The teams that break through share one trait: they treat operational data as a product, not monitoring exhaust.

This talk introduces the Platform Intelligence Pyramid:

• Foundation: unified observability via OpenTelemetry, including change events, the signal most teams miss
• Excellence: alert correlation, self-healing Kubernetes operators, and predictive scaling
• Intelligence: deployment risk scoring, cost-per-transaction analysis, and capacity forecasting that makes the platform a strategic business asset
