Case Study: Yahoo reduces alert noise and gains actionable operational insights with Moogsoft

Yahoo reduces alert noise by 99% with Moogsoft

Yahoo, the parent company of popular sites like Yahoo Finance and TechCrunch, faced significant IT operations challenges due to its complex and highly-heterogeneous technology environment. The infrastructure generated roughly 2 million alerts daily, causing alert fatigue and overwhelming teams who were unable to identify the root cause of system issues and service interruptions. To overcome this, Yahoo implemented the AIOps platform from Moogsoft.

The Moogsoft solution utilized machine learning algorithms to reduce alert noise by 99%, distilling 2 million daily events down to approximately 4,000 actionable situations. This provided Yahoo's teams with a comprehensive view across all business units and enabled them to proactively detect and swiftly fix problems. Moogsoft helped Yahoo avoid several costly outages, saving the company a great deal of money and providing actionable operational insights.
