Information technology management software provider Auvik Networks Inc. today announced the launch of Auvik Aurora: artificial intelligence-powered IT agents that are designed to help IT professionals proactively manage, troubleshoot and optimize their networks.

The company says the new agent offering was purpose-built for network and infrastructure management and works out of the box with no complex setup or AI tuning required. The agents are grounded in Auvik’s vast data repository to enable insights and recommendations informed by real-world IT complexity.

As IT teams manage more devices, applications and services while responding to more alerts and remediating more security vulnerabilities than ever before, there’s a widening gap between what needs attention and what gets attention, creating even more risk. Auvik AI agents help bridge that gap by delivering actionable guidance based on real-time network context, intelligent alerting. The aim is to surface high-impact issues first and reduce noise and proactive lifecycle and security management to prevent outages before they happen.

“Since its early days, Auvik’s framework for network management has been ‘See, Tell, Do’: gain complete visibility, surface the issues that need attention and drive automation to resolve them,” said Chief Executive Doug Murray. “Auvik Aurora builds on this vision, further empowering IT technicians to prevent network and infrastructure issues and reduce mean time to resolution when issues do occur, while helping our partners uncover revenue opportunities.”

The AI agents leverage real-time network data, such as topology, device relationships, performance data, lifecycle status and security vulnerability data, to deliver actionable recommendations, prioritize alerts by impact, and guide faster issue and ticket resolution. According to Auvik, the agents are uniquely suited to leverage network and client-specific data to provide contextual recommendations and tailored network actions, improving effectiveness over generic large language model responses.

The offering’s out-of-the-box capabilities give IT teams value from day one, with natural-language alert creation and recommendations tailored to each IT environment, according to the company. The agents also provide unique, vendor-specific assistance for command syntax and scripting.

With Auvik Aurora, IT teams and managed service providers can preempt issues by knowing which devices to patch or replace before they cause an outage. They can also find problems faster by accessing AI-powered insights and resolve tickets more efficiently by leveraging context-based recommendations and command assistance for the specific device.
