AI and Machine Learning (AI/ML) Integration:
- Automation: AI/ML will become involved in all the routine things including - the incidence handling, cause analysis, basic issue solving, leaving all the advanced and more important turns to the IT workers.
- Predictive Analytics: Through analysis of data from the past, the service provider can use AI or ML algorithms to determine likely problems that may affect the service and fight them before they occur.
- Personalized Support: Chatbots and virtual assistants can deliver assistance to their user base and help each one of them find their solutions to immediate problems.
Cloud-Based IT Service Management (ITSM) Solutions:
