+ ## Dataset Overview
50
+
51
+ **Dataset Name**: ITBench-Lite
52
+ **Organization**: IBM Research
53
+ **License**: Apache 2.0
54
+ **Language**: English
55
+ **Paper**: [ITBench: Evaluating AI Agents across Diverse Real-World IT Automation Tasks](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2502.05352)
56
+ **Kaggle Leaderboard**: [ITBench Benchmark](https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/itbench)
57
+ **GitHub**: [ITBench Sample Scenarios](https://github.com/itbench-hub/ITBench)
58
+
59
+ ITBench-Lite is a systematic framework for benchmarking LLMs and AI Agents on real-world IT automation tasks. This dataset contains **50 scenarios** across two critical domains:
60
+
61
+ - **Site Reliability Engineering (SRE)**: 35 scenarios with environment snapshots for incident diagnosis
62
+ - **Financial Operations (FinOps)**: 15 scenarios with synthetic cost anomaly data for spend analysis
63
+
64
+ ## Summary
65
+
66
+ ITBench evaluates LLMs against reasoning and decision-making for IT automation tasks across three domains:
67
+
68
+ 1. **Site Reliability Engineering (SRE)**: Ensures app resilience and performance through incident diagnosis
69
+ 2. **Financial Operations (FinOps)**: Manages IT spend by performing cost anomaly analysis
70
+ 3. **Compliance & Security Operations (CISO)**: Manages threats and assesses policies by conducting compliance posture assessment *(coming soon)*
71
+
72
+ This leaderboard represents a subset of the broader ITBench and includes selected SRE and FinOps scenarios in offline environments. We will continue enriching the scenario set and incorporating agentic evaluations into the leaderboard over time.

+ ### Data Files by Domain
110
+
111
+ #### SRE Scenarios (35 scenarios)
112
+
113
+ Each SRE scenario contains observability data from orchestrated environments where faults were injected:
114
+
115
+ | File | Format | Description |
116
+ |------|--------|-------------|
117
+ | `alerts/` | JSON | Time-series alert snapshots from monitoring systems |
118
+ | `metrics/` | Prometheus | Infrastructure and application metrics |
119
+ | `ground_truth.yaml` | YAML | Ground truth faulty entities and metadata |
120
+ | `k8s_events_raw.tsv` | TSV | Kubernetes cluster events |
121
+ | `k8s_objects_raw.tsv` | TSV | Kubernetes resource states (pods, services, deployments) |
122
+ | `otel_logs_raw.tsv` | TSV | Application and system logs via OpenTelemetry |
123
+ | `otel_traces_raw.tsv` | TSV | Distributed traces via OpenTelemetry |
124
+
125
+ #### FinOps Scenarios (15 scenarios)
126
+
127
+ Each FinOps scenario contains synthetic cost anomaly data:
128
+
129
+ | File | Format | Description |
130
+ |------|--------|-------------|
131
+ | `anomaly.json` | JSON | Cost anomaly details (date, account_id) |
132
+
133
+ **Example `anomaly.json`:**
134
+ ```json
135
+ {
136
+ "date": "2025-10-13",
137
+ "account_id": "49tAGZz"
138
+ }
139
+ ```
140
+
141
+ ## Tasks
142
+
143
+ ### SRE: Fault Localization
144
+
145
+ Identify the faulty entity or resource (e.g., a specific pod, service, or deployment) that caused the incident based on logs, traces, metrics, Kubernetes events and resources from the environment snapshot.
146
+
147
+ ### FinOps: Cost Anomaly Analysis
148
+
149
+ Identify the resource responsible for anomalous cost changes using synthetic cost anomaly details and workload configuration.
150
+
151
+ ### CISO: Compliance Assessment (Coming Soon)
152
+
153
+ Generate the correct Kyverno policy (Kubernetes) or OPA policy (RHEL) based on regulatory rules and natural-language Kubernetes/RHEL configurations.
154
+
155
+ ## Limitations
156
+
157
+ The SRE scenarios are **exported snapshots from sandboxed live Kubernetes environments**. While sourced from real running systems, the snapshot format inherently lacks the dynamic characteristics of live environments:
158
+
159
+ - Real-time observability (streaming metrics, logs, traces)
160
+ - Runtime state changes and non-deterministic behavior
161
+ - Interactive debugging and human-in-the-loop investigation
162
+ - Active remediation capabilities (deployments, rollbacks, scaling)
163
+
164
+ The static nature of these exports makes them suitable for diagnostic analysis but does not capture the full complexity of live incident response.
