Imagine this: you’re leading an important video conference presentation for a long-sought-after prospect. Suddenly, the call stutters, pixelates, and then drops entirely. To no fault of your own, your dynamite presentation and prepared notes are of no use as the prospect is left with a sour taste. This frustrating scenario, which many have experienced either during a virtual sales pitch or during internal team meetings, exposes the faults of a complex network environment.
Network growth, the increased usage of IoT devices, and evolving end-user behaviors are pushing traditional network management approaches to the limit. This leaves IT teams overloaded and struggling to keep up with day-to-day tasks.
Thankfully, artificial intelligence (AI) networking solutions are revolutionizing the way organizations manage networks. Let’s explore how it proactively supports and empowers IT personnel by tackling these common workload challenges.
As our dependence on connections increases, network complexity becomes a growing challenge. This manifests in several ways:
In turn, network administrators spend an inordinate amount of time on reactive troubleshooting, manually monitoring performance metrics, and configuring network settings. These tasks, while critical, are often repetitive and time-consuming, and leave little room for strategic planning and proactive initiatives. For an aspiring IT professional, this is not an ideal long-term scenario.
AI analyzes network data and predicts potential problems before they arise. Imagine a network that anticipates congestion and automatically reroutes traffic, preventing users from ever experiencing lag. This proactive approach minimizes downtime and ensures a seamless user experience. However, the benefits extend far beyond mere prediction. AI is not a replacement for the human element in network management. Instead, it is a powerful tool that complements the skills and expertise of today’s IT professionals.
The combination of AI-driven automation and human intelligence allows organizations to achieve a level of network performance and efficiency by:
