Splunk reshapes AgenticOps with "supercharged" observability

"AgenticOps means that all kinds of IT tasks become the responsibility of AI agents, who take over routine tasks from employees, who can then devote themselves to more meaningful activities. That alone is not enough, because monitoring agents is also a fast-paced activity and requires new agents. You may wonder who ultimately monitors what, because someone has to look at the real-time effectiveness of agents. Splunk's innovations respond to this."

"Both Splunk Observability Cloud and Splunk AppDynamics now offer the option of running troubleshooting via agents, which automatically analyze incidents to identify root causes. Event iQ automatically correlates alerts and provides context for grouped alerts within Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI). Splunk ITSI then provides summaries including trends, the estimated impact on the organization, and, where possible, the root cause, all to enable troubleshooting as quickly as possible."

Splunk positions AgenticOps to assign routine IT tasks to AI agents, freeing employees for higher-value work while introducing agent oversight responsibilities. The company enables agents to perform automated troubleshooting across Splunk Observability Cloud and AppDynamics, with Event iQ correlating alerts and providing context for grouped incidents within Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI). ITSI supplies summaries of trends, estimated organizational impact, and probable root causes to accelerate resolution. Splunk emphasizes AI observability to monitor LLMs, AI agents, and AI infrastructure for quality, cost, bottlenecks, and usage peaks. Splunk unifies AppDynamics with Observability Cloud and integrates Cisco ThousandEyes for end-to-end visibility.
