The impact of COVID-19 has forced many around the world to rethink our daily lives and reconsider how the business around the globe will operate. The Pandemic has given birth to a new revolution.This is about more than just technology-driven change; it is an opportunity to help everyone, including leaders, policy-makers and people from all income groups and nations, to harness converging technologies in order to create an inclusive, human centered future.
During the past three months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the business world has grappled with the question of whether to or when to reopen offices. Companies in Europe, the Middle East and Asia are reopening offices based on declining rates of infection. We're seeing data that indicates a "productivity tax" due to on-going remote work:
- To what extent does continued remote work affect overall productivity?
- Which countries are leading the return to working in the office?
- Does a return to the office mean an increase or decrease in employee productivity?
As the weeks and months pass since the initial COVID-19 outbreak, the picture of our post-pandemic world becomes clearer. As a result, CIOs and IT teams are now addressing the following questions with a longer view:
- To what extent is remote employee productivity affected by application performance?
- Are remote employees working more? If so, is it because applications aren’t performing as well as employees expect?
- How much do companies need to invest in IT to ensure the same digital experience whether employees work in the office or at home?

The enforced change to working from home (WFH) as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on everyone's working lives. Working from home has become more productive, with flexible hours and no commute. It has also changed the demands on different applications. As WFH continues, enterprise IT teams are looking to answer key questions such as:
- How has work from home affected the average working day?
- Which applications have become more critical for working from home?
- Has the rapid increase in collaboration app usage created a change in market leaders?
- After the lockdown ends, will this become the new normal?

- How have employees adjusted to remote work?
- How long will it take for workplace productivity to return to pre-outbreak “normal?”
- What are the differences in regional remote work capabilities?
- How is employee digital experience affected?
AIOps refers to the application of big data, machine learning, analytics and automation to IT Ops use cases in order to address this new need: to make sense of large quantities of mostly structured, specialized, cross-domain IT data. Read this white paper to discover the 4 dimensions of AIOps.
IT operations teams have historically leveraged application performance monitoring (APM) tools to ensure the availability and performance of critical business apps. But the adoption of SaaS apps, cloud-native development strategies, and other technologies that fuel today’s digital transformation initiatives are straining traditional APM solutions, leaving noticeable gaps in IT’s monitoring strategies. Read this eBook to explore:
- Four shortcomings of current APM tools and processes
- How next-gen APM solutions can fill these gaps and address the requirements of both business and technical leaders
- How Aternity APM uniquely provides the scalability, granularity, and depth to ensure your digital initiatives are a success
With APM big data, you can effectively resolve performance problems faster and optimize performance, even in dynamic and complex environments that rely on microservices, containers, and cloud Kubernetes services. Unlike data sampling or snapshotting, a big data approach to APM ensures that all the data is available when it is needed. Read this paper to learn how big data and advanced analytics can be successfully applied to APM for faster troubleshooting and better performance.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) may no longer be a revolutionary term, but for such a transformative and critical piece of technology, it often remains poorly understood by the teams that need it most. The new field of AIOps aims to narrow that gap for today’s leaders in IT Ops. AIOps offers critical capabilities to bring calm to overwhelmed IT Ops, NOC and DevOps teams and mitigates the fallout from today’s complex, noisy and dynamic IT stacks. This CIO Dive playbook explains how adopting AIOps can stem digital transformation’s deluge of work and give IT Ops leaders and decision makers pivotal insights otherwise unavailable.
