Operations use cases for AI bots Page 3 of 4
Operations bots watch systems and handle the routine work around them. These use cases investigate alerts and incidents, query databases and chart the results, run scheduled jobs and runbooks, track pipelines and post summaries to Slack. Many run on a schedule or start when something happens, so a bot takes the first look before a person steps in.
