SAN FRANCISCO, Jul. 24, 2023 --  D2iQ, the leading Kubernetes management platform provider, today announced DKP AI Navigator, empowering enterprise organizations to overcome one of the biggest challenges they face in adopting cloud-native technology–the skills gap.

Through a user-friendly interface, DKP AI Navigator enables organizations to harness more than a decade of the D2iQ team's experience and expertise in managing large container-based deployments.

"As the cloud, AI, and Kubernetes continue to converge, building an intelligent infrastructure is the critical foundation for organizations looking to adopt and leverage AI to power automation, decision-making, and product innovation," said D2iQ CEO Tobi Knaup. "DKP AI Navigator gives organizations unprecedented knowledge and insights that will enable them to more easily manage cloud-native Kubernetes environments and achieve the agility they seek in their modernization initiatives."

Survey after survey shows that the biggest problem enterprises face in adopting Kubernetes is the skills gap. DKP AI Navigator helps organizations solve this problem by bringing the accumulated knowledge of the world's leading Kubernetes experts into D2iQ customers' environments.

Of critical significance is that DKP AI Navigator has been trained on D2iQ's internal knowledge-base that houses solutions to the thorniest problems that customers have encountered in production. For example, DKP AI Navigator can help DevOps teams:

This means that D2iQ customers have instant access to that expertise in an easy-to-use natural-language tool integrated directly into the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP), through which they can manage Kubernetes fleets via a single pane of glass. DKP AI Navigator also has been trained on DKP product documentation, making it an exceptionally adept tutor for cloud-native beginners.

D2iQ has been supporting modern container-based applications for more than a decade and has been working on Kubernetes for the majority of that time. D2iQ's award-winning support team handles inquiries with a more than 99% satisfaction rating, and the solutions to difficult problems are continually added to our knowledge base (anonymized, naturally).

By training DKP AI Navigator on this incredibly rich data set, D2iQ is able to bring the power of that decade-plus experience directly to customers. In addition, D2iQ's support team remains an easy-to-access resource. Together, the combination of DKP AI Navigator plus 24/7 on-call support expertise is an invaluable resource unparalleled in the industry.

DKP AI Navigator will be available with the launch of DKP 2.6 in August.
