Get Started
New to BigPanda? Review this section to get up and running quickly.
BigPanda is an algorithmic event correlation platform that enables IT Operations teams to cut through the noise, remediate IT issues faster and with fewer resources, and achieve dramatically higher service levels.
BigPanda keeps businesses running with AIOps that transform IT data into insight and action. With BigPanda’s AIOps platform, businesses prevent IT outages, improve incident management and deliver extraordinary customer experiences. Without BigPanda, IT Ops, NOC, and DevOps teams struggle with a tsunami of data and highly-manual, reactive scale, complexity, and velocity of modern IT environments. This results in painful outages, unhappy customers, growing IT headcount, and the inability to focus on innovation.
BigPanda is designed to make identifying, triaging, and resolving outages easy, with intuitive single-pane of glass UI and deep context enrichment. Admins and managers have the ability to view detailed analytics and adjust the configuration to better meet individual organizational needs.

Access BigPanda
BigPanda is committed to the security of your data. Access Management in BigPanda allows you to protect your organization's resources by configuring access to specific areas of the platform.
Administrators can control which users can access the platform, and the modules they are able to view or modify. Use the following areas of BigPanda to invite users to the platform and adjust access levels:
- User Management - Invite users to BigPanda, and manage existing users.
- Roles Management - Create and customize roles to restrict the availability of your organization's sensitive content, and adjust access on a per-user basis.
- Single Sign-On (SSO) - Configure Single Sign-On (SSO) to allow users to log in to multiple systems via a third-party identity provider (IdP).
- Secure API Keys - When invoking requests to the BigPanda Public API, in order to be authorized, an HTTP Authorization header must be included with a specific API Key. API keys are managed directly through the BigPanda console and can be generated, deactivated, and deleted by administrators.
To learn more about how BigPanda protects your data, see the Security documentation.
