Server Density Integration Guide

Server Density, a hosted service, monitors servers and websites by creating real-time graphs displaying every performance metric across all systems. Integrate AlertOps’ alert management platform with Server Density to receive and respond to critical alerts through email, SMS, push notification, and phone alerts. AlertOps ensures that alerts received from Server Density always reach the correct, available team member by utilizing escalation policies and on-call schedules.

 Alert Triggering Information

AlertOps will automatically create an incident when a new alert is received from Server Density with an IncidentStatus status of “false.”

If an alert with status “false” matches an existing Open Alert, AlertOps will recognize the new alert as a duplicate and ignore the alert. The alert will be recorded in the Inbound Messages table as “Mapped Appended.”

AlertOps will automatically close the same incident when an alert with an IncidentStatus status “true” is received.
