ElastAlert is a Python framework for alerting on anomalies, spikes, and other patterns in data stored in Elasticsearch, with configurable rule types and many alert channels like Slack, PagerDuty, and email. The original Yelp project is no longer maintained; users should use the community fork ElastAlert2 instead.

Use cases

  • alert when error logs spike in elasticsearch
  • notify slack when log pattern matches
  • detect flatline in event rate
  • blacklist monitoring on log fields
  • send pagerduty alerts from elasticsearch queries

When to choose

  • you are already on an old ElastAlert deployment and need reference material
  • you want to understand rule-based Elasticsearch alerting concepts

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - use ElastAlert2 instead
  • you need maintained software or security fixes
  • your data is not in Elasticsearch
