Go from alert to root cause with an automated investigation, evidence, and a suggested fix.

## What you'll learn

- Automatically start incident investigations when alerts fire
- Group related alerts to reduce duplicate investigations
- Identify unused Kubernetes storage volumes through metrics analysis
- Trace the issue to inconsistent deployment naming
- Review impact, evidence, contributing factors, and an incident timeline
- Evaluate suggested fixes while keeping engineers in control

See how OpenObserve AI SRE automatically investigates production incidents when alerts fire, groups related alerts, and analyzes available logs, metrics, and traces. This demo follows a Kubernetes storage alert to six unused volumes caused by inconsistent naming, with supporting evidence and cleanup commands for an engineer to review.
