General News

Summary

And you thought we were kidding: No More Stupid Questions - Groundbreaking AI Automates Your Support Yeah... okay... we were... Today is not April Fools, and we still have exciting news for you. No, were not offering ambient user behavior monitoring (Layer 8 is just too hard!). Heres the result of our proof-of-concept using Alexa to get status reports from the PRTG network monitoring software. It monitors uptime, usage and traffic, allowing you to save costs by avoiding outages, by optimizing your IT infrastructure, by saving time, and by controlling your SLAs. Since the instructions are too long for a blog post, weve created a pdf that you can download and print, with detailed instructions on how to create an Alexa skill, the code you need for the Alexa lambda function, and the API files to enable your PRTG server to respond.
