The rapid pace of digital transformation is creating remarkable opportunities for enterprises—and enormous challenges for their IT teams. Customers today want always-on, always-mobile, instantly available experiences, and businesses that meet these demands can achieve incredible things. Yet, with constant pressure to do more with limited resources, IT teams struggle just to maintain the status quo, let alone innovate in ways that enable digital transformation.

The answer—and the next phase of digital transformation—is autonomic IT, an IT operational state that can self-monitor, self-optimize, and even heal issues as they arise. The AI and automation technology to create autonomous systems exists today, yet technology leaders face challenges when adopting these solutions or scaling them sufficiently to achieve desired outcomes.
