Incidents That Resolve Themselves, Not Just Route
Monitoring detects an incident in seconds, then it becomes a ticket that waits for a person to triage, diagnose, and fix. Symphony closes that gap, correlating the incident to its cause and running a governed remediation across any system, so known incidents resolve without a human and only the genuinely new escalates with full context.
Autonomous incident resolution is the automated detection, diagnosis, and remediation of an IT incident without a human bottleneck.
It goes beyond alerting and ticket routing: the incident is correlated to its cause, a governed remediation runs, and the ticket is updated and closed with evidence. Symphony runs this across SAP and non-SAP systems, integrated with ServiceNow, Jira, and monitoring, so known incidents resolve on their own and only genuinely new ones reach a person.
Detection Is Fast, Resolution Is Not
Monitoring and ITSM detect and log incidents in seconds. Resolution still runs on people reading dashboards, triaging tickets, gathering context, and applying the same fixes by hand, so mean time to resolve barely moves while alert volume climbs.
Alerts outpace people
Monitoring raises more alerts than any team can work, so real incidents wait in a queue behind noise and the backlog grows faster than it clears.
Triage is manual
Each ticket is routed, de-duplicated, and enriched by hand before anyone acts, so the time to even understand the incident is measured in hours.
The same fixes, done again
A large share of incidents are known and repetitive, a full filesystem, a stopped service, a stuck queue, yet each is resolved manually every time.
Knowledge lives in people
How to resolve each incident sits in a few senior heads and a runbook wiki, so resolution slows to a crawl the moment those people are unavailable.
Everything Resolution Needs, on One Layer
Autonomous incident resolution is not a smarter alert, it is a governed engine that correlates, diagnoses, and remediates across every system an incident touches, integrated with the ITSM tools the team already uses.
Signal and incident ingestion
Take incidents from monitoring, ITSM, and email triggers, so a failure is picked up wherever it is raised rather than waiting for a person to notice it.
Correlation and deduplication
Correlate related alerts to a single incident using a correlation ID, so a storm of symptoms becomes one cause to resolve rather than fifty tickets.
Automated diagnosis
Identify the cause from logs, status, and known patterns, so the incident starts from a diagnosis rather than a blank ticket and a log hunt.
Governed auto-remediation
Run the remediation as a catalogued, bounded action through Symphony, so a known incident is resolved autonomously within policy rather than by hand.
ITSM integration
Integrate with ServiceNow, Jira, Freshservice, and TopDesk through APIs, so resolution happens inside the incident process instead of alongside it.
Ticket lifecycle automation
Update, annotate, and close the ticket with the cause, action, and outcome attached, so the record reflects a resolved incident, evidenced, not a manual note.
Adaptive learning
Capture each new resolution so the next occurrence of the same incident resolves on its own, so the estate gets more autonomous over time.
Context-rich escalation
When a person is needed, route the incident with the cause, the records, and a proposed fix attached, so resolution starts with evidence, not a triage.
Any system coverage
Resolve incidents across SAP, databases, OS, cloud, and applications on one engine through 400+ prebuilt actions, so resolution is not split across tools.
Autonomy an Auditor Will Sign Off On
Letting resolution run itself is only safe if every action is bounded, identified, and logged. Symphony is the governance layer between the decision and the system, so autonomy never means loss of control.
The engine executes, not the model
AI proposes and diagnoses, but the remediation runs through Symphony under defined policy, so a model never touches a production system directly.
Runs under real identity
Every remediation carries a real identity mapped to each system's native authorisations, never a shared or elevated account.
Human approval where it matters
Actions outside policy or confidence thresholds route to an approver in Microsoft Teams with full context, and execute the moment the answer comes back.
Bounded, reversible actions
Resolution is limited to defined, safe actions per incident type, so autonomy operates inside guardrails rather than improvising on a live system.
Immutable audit trail
Every detection, correlation, decision, and action is logged with identity, cause, and outcome as it happens, and reflected on the ticket.
Escalate the genuinely new
Only incidents with no known safe resolution reach a person, so autonomy handles the repetitive and human attention goes to what is actually new.
From Routing Tickets to Resolving Incidents
The difference is not a smarter queue or a faster pager, it is a governed engine that correlates, remediates, and closes the incident while the team focuses on the genuinely new.
Detect, route, wait for a person
- Monitoring alerts and a ticket joins the queue
- Triage, de-duplication, and enrichment are manual
- Known, repetitive incidents are fixed by hand each time
- Resolution knowledge lives in a few senior heads
- The ticket is closed with a manual note
- Mean time to resolve barely moves as alerts climb
Correlate, remediate, close, govern
- Incidents are correlated to a cause automatically
- Known incidents remediate within policy on their own
- The ticket is updated and closed with evidence
- Each resolution is captured and reused
- SAP and non-SAP incidents run on one engine
- Only the genuinely new reaches a person
Resolution Runs on the Same Governed Engine
The engine that resolves an incident applies intelligence in three governed modes, so resolution gets exactly as much autonomy as the risk allows, and no more.
Rule-based remediation
Deterministic actions for known incidents, a restart or a cleanup, run straight through under fixed policy without reasoning.
Maestro co-pilot
For an ambiguous incident, the engine proposes the remediation in Microsoft Teams and executes on approval, so a person keeps the decision.
isAI autonomy
Continuous resolution that watches signals, remediates known incident patterns on its own, and escalates only what it has not seen before.
Resolve Incidents Across Every System and Tool
An incident spans monitoring, the ITSM tool, and the systems underneath, so Symphony resolves across all three through prebuilt actions and custom scripts, with no change to the core.
400+ prebuilt actions plus custom scripts. Incidents route through the ITSM tools operations teams already use, and an ambiguous case escalates to Maestro in Microsoft Teams for a governed decision. Failed jobs resolve through the same engine, see failed job recovery, and ITSM integration is detailed in ITSM automation.
