Alarm

The Catalyst Cloud Alarm Service allows you to add cloud-based monitoring for resource metrics in your project.

Alarms are used to track the state of resource metrics published to the Catalyst Cloud Metrics Service. By setting up actions to perform when the alarm is triggered such as sending notifications to external webhook URLs, this allows for easy integration with your chosen monitoring and alerting systems and saves some hassle trying to setup metric polling separately.

There are a number of alarm types available, with a variety of useful configuration options that allow the Alarm Service to monitor aspects of practically any kind of workload or resource on Catalyst Cloud.

The Alarm Service is also used by the Catalyst Cloud Orchestration Service to power its auto-scaling and auto-healing features.
