Cherwell Software announced the establishment of its Managed Service Provider (MSP) program, designed to provide IT service providers with the technology and infrastructure needed to deliver world-class ITSM capabilities to their customers.
Key to the program is the wide range of multi-tenant delivery options Cherwell Software offers the MSP environment, each with varying degrees of functionality. A single instance of the Cherwell Service Management application, and all the Cherwell-provided support infrastructure, can serve multiple customers who securely share the application within a single database. A multi-tenancy environment reduces the total cost of ownership and increases margins for the MSP, primarily by consolidating support and administration resources onto a single platform.
MSP customers will also benefit from Cherwell’s modern metadata architecture, which enables rapid configuration and the ability to design a wide range of automation workflows without the need for skilled programmers or developers. Furthermore, Cherwell offers both perpetual and subscription licensing models, with a choice of on-premises or hosted deployment within the Cherwell datacenter or via a public cloud service provider such as Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services.
“The Cherwell Service Management platform has an extensive track record of helping IT organizations reduce total cost of ownership, increase return on investment, and build automation solutions that add value to businesses” said Craig Harper, Cherwell President of Worldwide Sales, Marketing and Services. “The Cherwell MSP program will empower IT service providers to better optimize service delivery with one of the most flexible and powerful IT service management solution available. We are excited to be able to help MSPs increase their margins without compromising quality or security, by providing an offering that significantly reduces administrative overhead.”
“Our Managed Service Provider program aims to deliver the Cherwell value proposition to IT service providers across the globe” said Douglas Lingenfelter, Cherwell Director of Managed Service Providers. “Cherwell Service Management is the ideal ITSM solution for this constituency, which has a clear need for a multi-tenant, highly scalable and secure cloud-based solution with flexible and transparent licensing and pricing models”.

In live financial environments, capital markets software cannot pause for rebuilds. New capabilities are introduced as stacked technology layers to meet evolving demands while systems remain active, data keeps moving, and controls stay intact. AI is no exception, and its opportunities are significant: accelerated decision cycles, compressed manual workflows, and more effective operations across complex environments. The constraint isn't the models themselves, but the architectural environments they enter ...
Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...

Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
