Selector, which develops AIops tools for networking monitoring, raises $28M

Did you miss a session at the Data Summit? AIops -- the practice of applying AI to automate and improve IT operations -- has gained currency during the pandemic. As businesses embrace digital transformation strategies involving "multicloud," or the use of services from more than one cloud vendor, there's an increasing need to improve the observability and analytics around networking infrastructure and performance. In a 2022 Nutanix survey, organizations cited interoperability, security and data integration as the top challenges in managing mutlicloud setups. Spurred by the challenge, Kannan Kothandaraman and Nitin Kumar -- both networking industry veterans -- in 2019 launched Selector, an AIops platform for network, cloud and app delivery workflows.
