Alerta is a monitoring system that consolidates and de-duplicates alerts from multiple monitoring sources into a single view, combining a JSON API server with a web UI and CLI tool. It integrates with tools like Prometheus, Zabbix, Nagios, and PagerDuty and supports MongoDB or PostgreSQL as backends.

Use cases

  • consolidate alerts from multiple monitoring tools into one dashboard
  • de-duplicate and correlate alerts from Prometheus and Zabbix
  • self-host an alert management API server
  • send alerts from scripts via CLI or Python SDK
  • manage on-call alert acknowledgements with PagerDuty and Slack integration

When to choose

  • you need a single pane of glass for alerts from many monitoring systems
  • you want a self-hosted, scalable alert console with OAuth/SAML/LDAP auth
  • you need an API-first alert pipeline with webhooks and plugins

When to avoid

  • you only need metrics collection and graphing rather than alert routing
  • you want a fully managed SaaS alerting solution
  • you need deep built-in monitoring agents rather than alert consolidation
