Evolven Software: Blended Analytics – Breaking the Silos

During a 13 year tenure at Mercury (acquired by HP), Sasha Gilenson, current CEO of Evolven, saw the way enterprises were increasingly facing issues with critical business systems either underperforming or failing. He witnessed the ways in which gaps in IT Operations created problems, and looked at it from a new perspective. Just as Google came and revolutionized the world of Internet search, Sasha envisioned a similar revolutionary approach for handling the abundant data that IT teams faced in maintaining performance and availability of their business operations. “Evolven applies a new IT Operations Analytics (ITOA) approach to the critical IT operations challenges in on-premise and hybrid cloud environments, turning the big data generated by operations of IT environments into actionable insights,” says Gilenson.

The Evolven approach addresses IT pain points with a Blended Analytics solution that extracts insights and draws intelligent correlations from the various types of data produced by multiple systems across IT silos. Evolven provides key IT decision makers with the ability to see more than the individual parts and finally get the whole picture, by blending data from such varied sources as log files, changes to configuration, network traffic, performance metrics, and alerts from applications and other types of data through a prism of change.

Evolven’s advanced analytics applies machine learning to process and cross-correlate millions of data points in near real-time, identifying unknown and advanced threats across petabytes of machine data. Evolven’s Blended Analytics analyzes connected data to identify abnormal conditions or gradual trends. Imbued with cross-correlation and statistical anomaly detection, Evolven IT Operations Analytics Engine can send timely alerts when anomalies appear, and pinpoint strange behavior in environments before a full-fledged incident occurs.

IT specialists can realize why environments are not operating as expected, and take the necessary steps to resolve issues before their users are impacted.
