IT and cloud
Connect the event, the change decision and the action that actually ran.
Monitoring, service management, repositories and deployment tools already automate parts of IT operations. The gap is the execution path between them: which event opened the work, what was approved, which environment changed and what the checks returned. Nexus coordinates that path on your infrastructure, keeping the operational record and the required authority attached as work crosses systems.

The work
What it and cloud runs on Nexus
Event intake and operational routing
Validate cloud events, infrastructure alerts or cross-agency file submissions and route the resulting work. Preserve source references and the context required by the destination team.
Incident coordination
Connect an alert or service issue to the assigned investigation and remediation process. Return progress and outcomes to the relevant service records as the work proceeds.
Controlled infrastructure actions
Apply the approved cloud or host operation through the permitted interface or code step. Record the exact request, response and configured follow-up checks.
Change and deployment governance
Carry the selected revision, environment and required approval into the deployment path. Keep the implementation result tied to the change that authorized it.
Investigation and review briefs
Use models for alert grouping, log interpretation, remediation proposals or change summaries where those steps help the operator. The resulting brief enters the same change and execution process as other operational work.
Consolidation
One layer, not one integration at a time
The monitoring rule, service ticket, deployment job and local script may each have a history, but reviewing one operational change still requires connecting them. Nexus provides a common execution path with versioned conditions, approval steps, scoped calls and a defined exception route. IT can inspect what ran against a particular environment, identify the responsible decision and locate an outstanding stage without reconstructing the sequence from several independent automation histories.
Ownership
Where a person decides
The named incident owner determines the response path, and the change authority approves the action, environment and revision scope required by policy. Access changes and exceptions to production controls retain their designated owners. Separate workflow steps perform the authorized actions and record the resulting state checks; investigation or model output is review material, not a change approval.

IT and cloud use cases
Explore IT and cloud processes covering event intake, incident coordination, infrastructure actions, deployment governance and model-assisted investigation.
Public sector
Cross-agency file intake and validation
Microsoft Azure + SAP + ServiceNow
Files from other agencies are validated before they touch finance records, and problems become tickets.
Defense & national security
Cloud incident to controlled remediation
Amazon Web Services + ServiceNow + Jira
Cloud events become incidents and engineering tasks, and remediation runs only when approved.
Defense & national security
Configuration change across controlled environments
ServiceNow + GitHub + ArgoCD
Configuration changes deploy only after approval, with checks and deployment events tied to the change record.
Critical infrastructure
Infrastructure alert to incident and remediation
Amazon Web Services + ServiceNow + Jira
Alerts become incidents and engineering issues, and infrastructure changes run only when approved.
Critical infrastructure
Deployment governance
GitHub + ArgoCD + ServiceNow
Every deployment links to an approved change, passing checks and a deployment event.
Critical infrastructure
Cloud event to analytics workflow
Amazon Web Services + Snowflake + ServiceNow
Cloud events are enriched, loaded for analysis and escalated when thresholds are crossed.
Enterprise
Alert classification and grouping
Amazon Web Services + ServiceNow + OpenAI
Operators receive proposed incident groups with their underlying AWS alerts preserved and the grouping rationale recorded.
Enterprise
Proposed remediation for an incident
ServiceNow + Amazon Web Services + OpenAI + Jira
Incident owners receive a source-backed remediation plan ready for technical review and the required change approval.
Enterprise
Change summary for approvers
GitHub + ServiceNow + OpenAI
Change authorities receive a concise, source-linked account of the proposed change, its stated impact and its unresolved risks.
Critical infrastructure
Log pattern to incident
Amazon Web Services + Snowflake + OpenAI + ServiceNow
Operators receive a proposed incident supported by related log events, with hypotheses separated from observed evidence.

Talk to a solutions engineer
Bring one it and cloud process you want to consolidate
We will map the handoffs it crosses today, where the approval belongs, which steps stay deterministic and what the run record has to show afterwards.
- Runs on your infrastructure, including air-gapped.
- Your systems keep their own records.
- Existing automation can be invoked rather than rewritten.
FAQ
IT and cloud: common questions
- We already have deployment and incident tools; why add another layer?
- Nexus coordinates the work between those tools, connecting the triggering event, rule version, approval and actual system response in one execution path rather than replacing each tool's specialist role.
- Can infrastructure and application work run in the same workflow?
- Yes. The workflow can combine supported integration operations, infrastructure interfaces and code steps with shared approval and execution-record handling.
- Can this operate inside an isolated environment?
- Yes. Nexus supports air-gapped deployment when the required systems, interfaces, dependencies and any selected models are available inside that boundary.
- Where is the AI-specific IT argument covered?
- See AI for IT and cloud operations at /solutions/ai-for-it-operations for alert interpretation, log investigation, remediation proposals and approver summaries.
