AI-Powered Service Mapping
Maintaining accurate configuration management database (CMDB) data manually is nearly impossible at enterprise scale. The Australia release solves this with intelligent automation:
  • The Capability: Two built-in AI Agents automatically generate service maps using machine learning candidates. They connect your Business Applications directly to discovered Application Services, eliminating manual tracking.
  • Conversational Topology: Starting with later patches of the Australia release, you can use specialized Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools to query live service topology and configuration item (CI) data through a simple conversational interface.

Learning Enhanced Automation Playbook (LEAP)
Incidents happen, but resolving them shouldn’t require starting from scratch every time.
  • The Capability: The new LEAP application uses integrated AI to analyze active incident data. It helps Service Operations teams quickly create targeted automations to resolve high-impact infrastructure issues. By leveraging data-driven analytics to isolate root causes, LEAP turns reactive firefighting into a proactive problem-management workflow.

Discovery Admin Workspace & Expanded Multi-Cloud Support
Enterprise cloud footprints are growing, and visibility must keep pace.
  • The Capability: The upgraded workspace expands cloud discovery support to cover platforms like Alibaba, IBM, OCI, and Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE).
  • Real-Time Alerts: Operations teams can now receive real-time, automated alerts regarding discovery schedule failures or infrastructure anomalies directly within collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams and Outlook.

AI Agent Topology Mapping
As enterprises deploy more automated assets, keeping track of the digital workforce is crucial.
  • The Capability: The Australia release introduces AI Agent Topology Mapping, a feature that provides complete transparency and oversight of deployed AI agents, including tracking their specific business ownership.
