AIOPS Monitoring solution boosts ROI by observing 200 KPIs for order, payment and sales transactions in real-time
AIOPSGROUP has created a monitoring solution utilizing the Splunk data analytics platform. This monitoring tool tracks over 200 key performance indicators (KPIs) in real-time for sales, payment, and order transactions, as well as monitors data exchanges with product information systems (PIM) and order management systems (OMS). In the event of any anomalies that could potentially indicate operational deficits, performance issues, or fraudulent activities, AIOPSGROUP raises an alert, ensuring its clients maintain exceptional levels of customer experience and cybersecurity.
Several successful projects showcase AIOPSGROUP’s capabilities. For sports equipment supplier PUMA, for example, it developed a highly scalable technology stack for its 20-plus websites and e-shops.
