Observable and secure platforms use three connected data sets: logs, metrics, and traces. Platforms can link these data to alerting systems to notify system administrators when an event requires intervention. There are nuances to setting up these alerts so the system is kept healthy and the system administrators are not chasing false positive alerts.
With the Grafana 9.0 release, we rolled out the new and improved Grafana Alerting experience, which is now the default alerting system across all of our products. Along with introducing significant improvements to Grafana Alerting based on community feedback and more robust alerting documentation to guide our users, we also created easy-to-follow video tutorials to help you get started with creating alerts.
SIGNL4 supports the remote execution of automated tasks or workflows in IT or IoT systems using Remote Actions. These remote actions offer a wide range of applications. You can execute remote actions in response to an alert to trigger some kind of remediation action. But there are many more possible use cases.

You can blame this tendency to ignore or avoid incoming messages or notifications on one culprit: alert fatigue.
