AIOps is so powerful, vendors are building tools to clean up after agents break your infrastructure
Cohesity, ServiceNow and Datadog team on recoverability suite
Three more vendors have decided that the world needs tools to roll back mistakes made by AI, after Cohesity teamed with ServiceNow and Datadog on a recoverability service that will hunt down all the files and data corrupted by bad AI actors and restore systems to a “trusted state.”
The three companies believe that enterprises will use agentic AI to operate some of their systems – a practise often called "AIOps" – but also expect the software could botch the job or fall victim to malicious attacks. They therefore think organizations will need tools to recover from errors introduced by AI.
Users could of course wait for the market to mature so AI is less likely to make mistakes that need to be rolled back, and less susceptible to attack. Vendors aren’t making such caution easy, by adding agentic automation to their products – often in the form of tools that diagnose problems and then offer to fix them.
Cohesity plans to deliver the product before the end of the year. When it reaches the market, Cohesity will find itself in competition with Rubrik, which introduced a similar tool in August 2025, and native rollback capabilities that the likes of Cisco have built into their agentic tools.
There may be room for many players in this market, as analyst firm Gartner predicts up to 40 percent of enterprise applications will include integrated task-specific agents in 2026, up from less than five percent in 2025.
Rival analyst firm Forrester has warned that preventing agentic AI problems in the enterprise requires developers of agents to include guardrails, identity and access management controls, and strong oversight.
Cohesity says it addresses the risks agents pose by preserving immutable snapshots of AI environments and it allows for point-in-time recovery of agents, data, and supporting infrastructure, including files, databases, object storage, SaaS applications, vector stores, and agent memory, the company said.
ServiceNow and Datadog are helping Cohesity by providing control and observability platforms that monitor for anomalies. If the vendors’ tools spot a problem, Cohesity’s tools can trigger API-driven restorations across an IT estate, recovering AI agents and agent memory, vector databases, model configurations, training and fine tuning data, and enterprise data stores. ®
