Setting up alerts
Being proactive about monitoring the data mesh is very important. Your stakeholders finding out about issues with data or services before you do is never a good scenario.
In order to ensure that the IT ops team is ahead of infrastructure failures, performance bottlenecks, and data quality issues, you need to ensure that alerts are triggered whenever a diagnostic setting goes beyond a threshold (amber or red). The alert has four parts:
- Resources: The resources on which the alerts need to be set.
- Alert rules: The rules that define when an alert should trigger.
- Alert: The alert itself.
- Actions: The actions that the alert should take once it triggers. This could be sending an email or mobile SMS or triggering a runbook.
