Why each option
In the DIKW hierarchy, tools can deliver data, information, and knowledge, but wisdom requires human judgment and experience and cannot be provided by a tool.
Knowledge can be stored in knowledge management systems such as a Known Error Database (KEDB) and retrieved by tools to support decision-making.
Information is structured, contextualized data that monitoring dashboards, reporting tools, and management systems routinely provide.
Wisdom sits at the top of the DIKW (Data, Information, Knowledge, Wisdom) pyramid and represents the ability to apply knowledge with sound judgment, experience, and discernment. Unlike the other three levels, wisdom is an intrinsically human capability - no tool, database, or system can replicate the experiential understanding required to exercise wisdom.
Data consists of raw facts and figures that tools easily collect, store, and present through logging, sensors, and event management systems.
