Abstract

Cloud computing has transformed the IT in the enterprise by offering scalability, economy and accessibility at a global scale. However, the distributed architecture, the workloads of containerization and the multi-cloud plans are growing at a rapid pace, which means that the existing IT functions are no longer sufficient to serve the increased size, speed and complexity of the cloud. This has witnessed the invention of Cloud Operations (CloudOps) and Artificial Intelligence to run IT Operations (AIOps). There is a cloudops which is the automation, monitoring, and governing of cloud-native infrastructure and AIOps advanced analytics and machine-learning (ML)/natural-language processing (NLP) anticipating problems in their use of cloud infrastructure to make its use more efficient and, in fact, less human-intensive. The paper will thoroughly analyze CloudOps and AIOps automation structure, principles, architecture, tools, and benefits thereof. A comprehensive review of the literature is conducted on the basis of the analysis of the former research on cloud management automation and the integration of AI-based insights into IT operations. I recommend a hybrid CloudOpsAIOps automation system in the methodology section, which has a layered structure and is used to cover resource orchestration, observability, anomaly detection and intelligent decision-making. The efficiency improvement is experimented with simulation experiments in terms of Mean Time to Detection (MTTD), Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR), cost optimality and reliability benefit of simulation experiment on real-world cloud workload. The findings show that CloudOps using AIOps lessens the down times and improves the system resiliency and supportive predictive and prescribing analytics. The study finds that CloudOps automation and AIOps framework are not only critical change agents of digital transformation, but also essential in sustainable cloud governance
