REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Riverbed, the leader in AIOps for observability, today announced that it has been selected as the winner of the “AIOps Platform of the Year” award in the 9th annual AI Breakthrough Awards program conducted by AI Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global Artificial Intelligence (AI) market today.
As organizations across every industry accelerate digital transformation and AI adoption, the ability to deliver frictionless digital experiences has become mission critical. Modern enterprises depend on seamless digital experiences to keep employees productive, business workflows running smoothly, and operations performing at their best, driving greater efficiency, resilience, and business outcomes.
The AI Breakthrough Awards program recognizes the world’s most innovative companies, technologies, and products in AI. Winners are selected based on criteria such as innovation, performance, functionality, and market impact. This recognition highlights Riverbed’s continued leadership in AI-powered IT operations and observability, helping organizations prevent disruption, accelerate resolution, and advance toward autonomous IT through trusted data, intelligent automation, and actionable insights.
“While traditional automation is built on a static rulebook, the Riverbed Platform delivering AIOps and AI-powered observability solutions goes further, driving faster, smarter, and more autonomous IT operations without shifting additional burden to employees or IT teams,” said Richard Tworek, Chief Technology Officer, at Riverbed. “We’re proud to receive this recognition from AI Breakthrough. The future of IT isn’t just faster reaction times; it’s also about eliminating disruption altogether to improve employee productivity, increase efficiency, accelerate innovation, and move toward autonomous IT.”
“Riverbed delivers on the promise of AIOps, reimagining what ‘good IT’ looks like. A seamless digital experience is the foundation of the modern enterprise – whether in the office, at home, day or night,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, AI Breakthrough. “Riverbed is redefining AIOps for a new era, operationalizing AI through autonomous IT operations that keep employees productive and operations running. We’re pleased to award Riverbed with ‘AIOps Platform of the Year.’"
Bringing together 25+ years of expertise across applications, networks, devices, and clouds with a unified architecture for autonomous IT operations, this achievement builds on the recent announcement of six new Riverbed products and capabilities. These innovations include Riverbed IQ 4.0, the company’s unified intelligence layer for autonomous operations; Riverbed Q, a conversational AI interface for IT teams; AI Assurance for AI observability and governance; and new Aternity capabilities, including Replay 2.0, High Frequency Analytics, and APM+, which extend visibility, accelerate root cause analysis, and help organizations proactively prevent disruption before it impacts users.
