Companies across industries, including telecommunications, healthcare, hospitality, retail and SaaS, are dealing with an explosion of data and complexity as they migrate to Cloud and accelerate AI adoption. The number of technologies they’re using is also increasing, resulting in more frequent and complex outages. Their teams, however, lack the scale and time to manually troubleshoot and fix these growing issues quickly–often leading to downtimes that put their revenue at risk.  Up to 90% of repair time–and downtime–is spent trying to find the origin of issues. When incidents and outages occur, as much as 90% of repair time is spent sorting through enormous volumes of data to narrow down where and what to fix. Selector makes this process instantaneous. Its AI engine directly interfaces with the industry’s first network language model platform so that teams can have real-time conversations with their full-stack data in human language to determine precisely where issues originated.  “Even the slightest performance degradation or downtime is unacceptable for mission-critical infrastructure and services. Solving this problem requires auto-correlating across enormous volumes of data. That’s why we exist,” said Selector CEO Kannan Kothandaraman. “We’ve spent the last five years demonstrating how autonomous AI technology and human network expertise can work together to ensure that the world’s most demanding networks are up, operating, and generating revenue at all times.
