Alerts overview

Get real-time resilience and financial anomalies alerts across your environment and address them before they impact your services

PerfectScale delivers timely and reliable alerts to keep you informed about unusual system activity and detected anomalies. These alerts are specifically designed to highlight changes in key indicators, enabling you to take quick action to address potential issues before they impact your system's efficiency, performance, or stability.

PerfectScale allows you to easily set up resiliency and financial alerts and manage them efficiently by configuring the corresponding alert profile:

• Financial alerts configuration

• Resiliency alerts configuration

For faster updates, utilize Slack or MS Teams integrations to receive immediate notification when an alert is generated.

Workload-level alerts

Workload-level alerts are designed to trigger alerts based on a workload's specific state. Unlike standard alerts, which depend on particular conditions within a container, workload-level alerts are triggered by changes in specific workload indicators. This feature enhances alerting capabilities and introduces new types of alerts, allowing for more comprehensive monitoring and response to resiliency risks identified before they impact users.

• Max HPA Replicas - a workload-level alert indicating that the system can not scale further because the maximum configured HPA replica limit has been reached.

The algorithm for inactive/deleting alerts

To improve visibility and highlight only relevant issues, PerfectScale uses the following algorithm to deactivate or delete irrelevant Alerts.

Inactive Alert

PerfectScales checks the last seen date of the Alert. If the last seen > 3 days, the Alert will be considered inactive, and its marker will be changed to grey.

Inactive alert indicator

Alert deleting

With the same scenario mentioned earlier, PerfectScales checks the last seen date of the Alert. If the last seen > 29 days, the Alert will be deleted.

Available notification channels

For faster updates, utilize Slack, MS Teams, or Datadog Integration Profiles to receive notifications when an alert is generated.
