Benefits of AI and Machine Learning

AI&ML are becoming more prevalent across the network, from edge to core. They’re being used for everything from security threat detection to traffic analysis. But what does this mean for your organization? How can you leverage these technologies effectively? And how do they affect existing processes and procedures?

Read on as we explore some of the latest trends in artificial intelligence and machine learning. We’ll also discuss their impact on network operations and management.

AI is a powerful tool for analyzing large amounts of data quickly. It’s able to process information at an incredible rate compared to humans or even other computers. This makes it ideal for examining massive amounts of data generated by networking equipment such as switches, routers, firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention devices, etc. By using AI-based algorithms, you’ll be able to identify trends and patterns within this data. You may then be able to take action before problems arise.

For example, if you notice that traffic between two specific IP addresses is increasing rapidly, you could block access to those IP addresses until a further investigation reveals what’s going on.

Machine learning is another form of artificial intelligence that uses statistical methods to analyze data without programing each individual algorithm yourself. Instead, you use pre-programmed models that learn how to solve certain problems based on previous experiences. These models can also adapt to new situations very easily.
