IBM’s Game-Changer: An AI ’Undo Button’ That Slashes Cloud Outage Recovery Time
Cloud chaos meets its match—IBM just weaponized AI against downtime.
When servers scream, this neural net slaps the 'undo' button. No more sweating through multi-hour outages while CFOs hyperventilate over lost revenue. The system analyzes failure patterns in milliseconds, rolls back configurations to stable states, and does it all before your ops team finishes their third panic coffee.
Corporate clouds now crash with 78% faster recovery (according to internal benchmarks). That’s billions in saved productivity—unless your C-suite immediately reinvests the savings into more blockchain consultants.
Outages aren’t getting rarer. But at least now they’ll die faster.

Like the undo shortcut Ctrl+Z, STRATUS can automatically roll back bad decisions made by AI agents during incident responses. For example, if a fix makes things worse, STRATUS resets the system to a safe checkpoint in order to try another solution. Interestingly, in tests using open-source cloud benchmarks from Microsoft (MSFT) and IBM, STRATUS outperformed other top tools by at least 150%.
Moreover, STRATUS relies on a method called transactional-no-regression (TNR), which means that it only allows changes that can be reversed and that won’t break anything. For example, if an agent tries to delete a database, the system stops it unless it’s SAFE and undoable. As a result, researchers believe that this model could be used for more than just cloud outages.
