Expanding its AI capabilities, PagerDuty introduced AI-generated runbooks in its second fiscal quarter of 2024, elevating automation initiatives that align with cost optimization and operational efficiency goals.

PagerDuty benefits from an expanding clientele, with nearly 30% of enterprise clients broadening partnerships, and strengthened its market presence by landing and expanding services with major clients like Banco Santander, Cisco Systems, Confluent, DocuSign, Grammarly, HubSpot and Nvidia.

PagerDuty achieved the FedRAMP In Process status, advancing its capabilities for streamlined operations and automated solutions catering to U.S. federal government agencies and large commercial customers.
