Prometheus Custom Alert Notifications

To add custom alert notification channels for Prometheus, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a new alert receiver: Firstly, add a new alert receiver to the Prometheus configuration file following the example provided in the official documentation.
  2. Write a notification script: In accordance with custom alarm notification requirements, create a script or program to implement the logic of alarm notification. Various programming languages such as Python, Shell, etc. can be used to write the notification script.
  3. Set up alerting rules: Define the metrics and alert rules to monitor in the Prometheus alert rule file, and specify to send notifications to a new alert receiver when an alert is triggered.
  4. Test Alert Notification: After configuration is completed, you can manually trigger a test alert to verify that the notification is functioning correctly.
  5. Deploy and monitor alert notifications: Deploy configured custom alert notification channels to the production environment and regularly monitor the status of alert notifications to ensure timely and accurate notification to relevant personnel when alerts occur.

With the above steps, custom alert notification channels can be added to Prometheus to achieve a more flexible and personalized alert notification function.
