What is QNOD?

The QualityNet Operations Dashboard (QNOD) offers a comprehensive overview of the health of the Center for Clinical Standards and Quality (CCSQ) ecosystem. By aggregating data from multiple reporting sources, QNOD delivers critical insights into the availability and performance of each CCSQ Service. Designed to meet the specific needs of service owners, it showcases essential Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to assess and manage the operational status of their services effectively.

How Does it Work?

QNOD integrates data from multiple reporting sources to deliver a comprehensive view of system health and service availability across all CCSQ services. This platform aggregates and presents each service's key performance indicators (KPIs), providing an at-a-glance understanding of operational status. Service owners carefully select these KPIs based on what they consider most critical for assessing whether their services are functioning as expected. By curating and submitting precise, meaningful data, service owners can leverage QNOD to its fullest potential, gaining valuable insights into performance trends, identifying areas for improvement, and making informed decisions to enhance service quality and reliability, thereby feeling more informed and knowledgeable.

Users can access the QNOD Dashboard by using the following link:

What is Machine Learning and How Can it Help You?

Machine learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence that uses algorithms to identify patterns and insights from data. This technology is of particular benefit when the datasets are large and complex. At QualityNet Operations Dashboard (QNOD), our machine learning models are trained on historical data from the Center for Clinical Standards and Quality (CCSQ) services to understand how these services operate. Providing QNOD with high-quality data is essential for achieving accurate and reliable machine learning results, which can be used to enhance service performance and detect issues early.

QNOD currently utilizes two types of machine learning models:

  • Anomaly Detection

Anomaly detection models are designed to identify unusual patterns in service data. An anomaly does not necessarily indicate a problem with a service but suggests that the model has detected values far outside the typical range. This range is established by training the models on historical Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) data, which each service provides to the QNOD team. By identifying anomalies, we can proactively monitor systems for potential issues.

  • Classification Models

Our classification models analyze historical service data to categorize and identify different states or conditions of the systems. These models help us monitor the systems and determine if any issues need attention. By classifying data based on historical patterns, we can better understand the current state of our services and take appropriate action when necessary. These models differ from the Anomaly models in that known service degraded or outage states for a given service may be used to train the model such that future degraded or outage states may be accurately detected.
QNOD’s machine learning engineers are also exploring advanced techniques, such as Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs), to enhance our capabilities further. Additionally, we are investigating predictive model forecasting to improve our ability to anticipate future trends and performance.

Are you interested in implementing machine learning in your services? Contact the QNOD team via Slack #help-qnod or the QNOD Service Desk.

QNOD takes in values from multiple monitoring tools and applications and brings them into one unified view to make it easy for people to understand how a service performs. This process means that we can add new monitoring tools to QNOD in the future without losing the historical view.
