What role will AI Operations play in IT departments by 2025?
AI Operations will be essential in 2025, enabling the automation of routine tasks and optimizing resources. By integrating various infrastructure elements, AIOps will facilitate real-time resource optimization and predictive incident resolution, allowing IT teams to focus on higher-value tasks and innovation.
How will cybersecurity responsibilities evolve in IT departments?
Cybersecurity will remain a critical function for IT departments, as they will be tasked with managing networks, implementing zero-trust measures, and coordinating responses to new risks. The shift to remote work and the integration of AI and cloud systems will require IT teams to adapt their strategies to secure the workplace effectively.
