RDS Custom supports the alert service of Cloud Monitor. By setting alert rules for important system events, you can receive timely notifications about the occurrence and progress of events through methods such as email, and DingTalk robots. This helps you monitor event status in real time.
Background information
You can use the event subscription feature to perform the following operations:
You can configure a subscription policy to subscribe to system events or threshold-triggered events.
You can merge alerts based on the subscription scope of system events or threshold-triggered events. Then, you can denoise alerts by specifying conditions to manage the validity of alerts. This prevents an excessive number of alert notifications from being repeatedly sent within a short period of time.
CloudMonitor sends valid alert notifications that are denoised to specific alert contacts. If the related alerts are not cleared within a specified period of time, CloudMonitor automatically sends the alert notifications to the next alert contact group.
You can specify notification methods, notification templates, and alert levels as needed. You can push all alert data to the following channels: Simple Message Queue (formerly MNS) (SMQ), Simple Log Service, Function Compute, and webhooks.
