Recently, the international research firm Gartner released the Hype Cycle for Infrastructure Strategies in China, 2024 Report. As a leader of digital IT R&D and IT O&M solutions, CanWay BlueWhale has been recognized as a representative vendor of AIOps, APM and Observability in China, and OpenTelemetry categories.
It is reported that CanWay BlueWhale has previously been selected as a representative vendor in Gartner's Market Guide for AIOps in China. This latest recognition further demonstrates the company’s contributions and leading position in the field of digital transformation.
01 AIOps Empowers O&M Efficiency with Rising Enterprise Adoption
Based on the diverse market needs, Gartner has developed a Hype Cycle covering infrastructure innovations in China. The current hype cycle is constructed by the 2024 China Infrastructure Strategic Priority Matrix. It provides a unique perspective on the hype cycle by aligning technologies with their benefits and maturity timelines. The composition of this new hype cycle, along with innovations, is not only based on inquiries from users, but also includes cutting-edge technologies that can maximize benefits for Chinese enterprises across multiple sectors.
In China, the AIOps market can be broadly divided into three categories: comprehensive AIOps platforms—which are gradually transitioning into “Event Intelligence Solutions”—as well as AI-enabled monitoring and observability tools, and data and analytics solutions.
In recent years, enterprises' adoption of AIOps has been steadily increasing, primarily driven by the following factors:
- Increasing Complexity of System Integration: As IT portfolios become increasingly complex, encompassing deep integration of on-premises resources, cloud IaaS/PaaS services, SaaS platforms, and the transition from monolithic to microservices architectures, the complexity of system integration has increased significantly. Such highly integrated environments create an urgent need for AIOps to deliver comprehensive and intelligent operations management.
- Growing Demand for Observability: Enterprises are increasing investments and optimization in monitoring and observability, striving to capture and analyze vast amounts of data from more diverse sources. This pursuit of business transparency and insights is driving the widespread adoption of AIOps technologies to enable real-time, precise monitoring of complex IT environments.
- Requirements of Reliability: Under modern operational models such as DevOps, shifts in roles and responsibilities are designed to drive higher availability and faster incident resolution. AIOps, particularly AIOps platforms, enables agility by mechanical tasks such as incident classification, root cause analysis, and solution identification.
02 Integrated, Platform-Based, and Digital-Intelligent AIOps Solutions Meet Market Expectations

It covers enterprise IT O&M scenarios including Configuration Management Center, Observability Center, ITSM Center, Automation Operations Center, Disaster Recovery Center, Multi-Cloud Management Center and Data and Intelligence Center, thoroughly addressing challenges, such as system data silos, business isolation, difficulties in managing IT O&M objects, and low automation levels. Meanwhile, CanWay BlueWhale provides robust scalability for customers to meet current and future IT O&M needs.
Integrated digital intelligence operations management solution—CanWay BlueWhale AIOps can address diverse enterprises operations scenarios by enabling tools through IT O&M logic:
1. Integrated opeartions scenarios with unified covergence : Unified operation through ITOM, enabling scenarios across configuration, monitoring and alerting, processes, and automation. It establishes a unified model for data centers while remaining compatible with existing enterprise tool systems. It greatly supports typical scenarios such as rapid troubleshooting, closed-loop disaster recovery management, improved release and deployment efficiency, and effective capacity management.
2. Platform-Based Architecture Supporting Technological Evolution: As the first Operation PaaS platform architecture validated by massive practical implementation. It decouples capabilities and scenarios, employs a single control system, supports heterogeneous and domestic technology adaptation, and offers powerful scalability. Additionally, it assists enterprises in digital operation development, achieving autonomy for sustainable development.
3. Data and Intelligence Empowering IT O&M: Enhances productivity through data and AI, helping enterprises realize Data Ops for operation and maintenance, ML Ops for intelligent model, and LLM Ops for large language model. It constructs scenarios such as integrated observational data, intelligent monitoring, troubleshooting, analysis and summary, driving implementation through scenario application.
Ultimately, it aims to construct a blueprint for digital operation scenario activities for enterprises：
CanWay BlueWhale Full-Stack Intelligent Observation Center, based on the OpenTelemetry cloud-native observation standard, deeply integrates multiple mainstream for sources. Through continuous development and iteration, it has achieved observability across multiple domains, including resource monitoring of full-stack business system, K8s container, cloud platform, hardware device, website service probing, unified log management, application monitoring, business scenario monitoring, and closed-loop alert management. It addresses core issues such as user experience measurement, precise fault localization, accurate alerting, and efficient data retrieval.
Additionally, the report also points out that this year, generative artificial intelligence is the only innovation in the hype cycle rated for transformative benefits. It is expected to mature within 2 to 5 years. The CanWay BlueWhale AIOps provides a one-stop suite of intelligent development of O&M scenario and service tools, covering machine learning modeling, scenario solution development, and scenario services, supporting for enterprises in building intelligent O&M capabilities.
