"While automation has spread through applications and workflows, the data describing the underlying infrastructure, physical hardware, virtual machines, cloud resources, and the connections between them, has remained scattered across spreadsheets, configuration management databases, and ad-hoc scripts. None of those sources was designed to feed AI agents reliable information."
"When agents act on incomplete or inaccurate infrastructure data, the company says, the result is errors that can cascade through production systems quickly. OpsMill cites two figures to size the problem. Gartner forecasts that 30 per cent of enterprises will automate more than half of their network activities by 2026, up from under 10 per cent in mid-2023."
"Per the ITIC 2024 Hourly Cost of Downtime Report, the average enterprise loses around $300,000 for every hour of downtime, before reputational costs are counted. Infrahub, OpsMill's flagship product, takes a different approach to representing infrastructure data than the table-based asset registers most enterprises use."
OpsMill, a Paris-based infrastructure data management company, secured $14m in Series A funding led by IRIS, with participation from BGV and existing investors Serena and Partech. The company's Infrahub platform addresses a critical enterprise challenge: infrastructure data remains fragmented across spreadsheets, databases, and scripts, creating unreliable information sources for AI agents. When agents act on incomplete or inaccurate data, errors cascade through production systems. Gartner forecasts 30% of enterprises will automate over half their network activities by 2026, while downtime costs enterprises approximately $300,000 hourly. Infrahub uses a graph database approach to map infrastructure connections, differentiating itself from traditional table-based asset registers. The platform is already in production at TikTok and a European cloud provider that reduced deployment times from five days to fifteen minutes.
