Predictive Intelligence for Incident Management

Use your instance records to build specific solutions for Incident Management.

Solution definitions

These solution definitions are available as templates on instances where both Predictive Intelligence and Incident Management are active. Create your own solution definition records to customize the behavior.

Solution DefinitionSolution TypeDescription
Incident AssignmentClassificationPredicts the Assignment group field from the Short description.
Incident CategorizationClassificationPredicts the Category field from the Short description.
Incident ServiceClassificationPredicts the Service field from the Short description.
Incident Configuration ItemClassificationPredicts the Configuration item field from the Short description.
Major Incident DetectionSimilarityRecommends similar active major incidents which the current incident can be linked to. Recommends similar incidents to propose a major incident.
Similar Incidents \(Major Incident Workbench\)SimilarityRecommends similar incidents that are not linked as child incidents to a major incident.
Similar IncidentsSimilarityRecommends similar incidents based on the Short description and Description fields, to help with incident investigation and resolution processes.
Similar Open IncidentsSimilarityRecommends similar open incidents based on the Short description and Description fields, that the current incident can be linked to.
Similar Closed IncidentsSimilarityRecommends similar closed incidents based on the Short description and Description fields, to help with incident investigation and resolution processes.
Similar Resolved IncidentsSimilarityRecommends similar resolved incidents to help with incident investigation and resolution processes.

Solution definitions and the required plugins are as follows:

Solution definitionPlugins
- Incident Assignment - Incident Categorization - Incident Service - Incident Configuration ItemThe plugins com.glide.platform\_ml and com.snc.incident.ml\_solution must be active.
Similar Incidents \(MIM\)The plugins com.glide.platform\_ml and com.snc.incident.mim.ml\_solution must be active.
Major Incident RecommendationThe plugins com.snc.contextual\_search\_ml and com.snc.incident.mim.ml\_solution must be active.
- Similar Open Incidents - Similar Resolved Incidents - Similar Incidents - Similar Knowledge ArticlesThe plugins com.snc.contextual\_search\_ml and com.snc.incident.mim.ml\_solution must be active.

Business rule for classification solutions

This business rule applies only to the Incident Assignment and Incident Categorization solution definitions and is available only on instances where both Predictive Intelligence and Incident Management are active. Create your own business rules on the Incident table to customize prediction and reporting behaviors.

Business ruleTableDescription
Update Prediction ResultsIncidentUpdates the solution precision and coverage statistics. Runs when an incident record is closed.

Upgrade Information

If your instance is running on the Kingston release and you are upgrading to the Australia release:

  • In a global domain environment, use the new solutionNames array variable which requires that you explicitly provide the solutions that are called by the business rule.
  • In a domain-separated environment, such as an MSP environment, refer to the commented code in the business rule template for easy customization.
  • The business rule template now calls the applyPredictionForSolution() method to predict regardless of any changes to the default value.

Maintaining prediction accuracy

You can manage prediction drift by retraining, modifying, or creating new solutions to reflect changes in your business conditions. Test and modify your business rule over time to ensure it works as desired across multiple consumption points and user Personas.
