LAS VEGAS - PagerDuty, Inc. (NYSE:PD), a $1.92 billion market cap company currently trading below its InvestingPro Fair Value, announced the integration of new generative AI (genAI) and automation capabilities into its PagerDuty Operations Cloud platform, in collaboration with Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) Web Services (AWS). The announcement was made at AWS re:Invent 2024, where PagerDuty's CEO, Jennifer Tejada, shared the stage with AWS CEO, Matt Garman. The company, which maintains impressive gross profit margins of 82.5%, has shown strong momentum with a 3.5% gain in the past week.
The integration combines PagerDuty Advance with AWS services such as Amazon Q Business, Amazon Bedrock, and Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. This collaboration aims to help organizations deploy genAI into their incident management processes, enhancing operational automation, connectivity, and resilience.
PagerDuty's research indicates a 43% increase in major service and operational disruptions over the past year, with costs averaging $800,000 per incident. The integration with AWS services is designed to help organizations across various industries manage these complex and interdependent technology infrastructures more effectively. With revenue growing at 8.7% year-over-year and a healthy current ratio of 1.97, PagerDuty demonstrates strong operational execution in addressing these market challenges.

The PagerDuty Advance assistant for Slack and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Teams, powered by Amazon Bedrock, offers AI-powered incident context support through chat. This allows incident responders to quickly obtain relevant information without consulting others, potentially saving organizations substantial amounts per incident. The integration with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails aims to improve genAI response accuracy and safeguard against harmful content.
Additionally, PagerDuty is the first incident management platform to integrate with Amazon Q Business, enabling users to query data from multiple applications through a single interface. Early access adopters report saving an average of 30 minutes per incident, translating to significant financial savings.
PagerDuty and AWS's strengthened partnership, which supports nearly 6,000 joint customers, reflects their shared commitment to operational excellence. The new AI and automation tools are now generally available in all regions where PagerDuty operates, with the Amazon Q Business plugin available in the U.S. service region.
This move is seen as a strategic implementation of AI to help enterprises achieve agility, reliability, and enhanced customer experiences, according to Stephen Elliot, Group Vice President and Analyst at IDC.
