Interactive Demo: In-stream Alerts
In-stream alerts execute their queries for trigger conditions on the data stream within a Pipeline,
so the latency between a trigger condition being met and alert being sent is typically measured
in seconds. And unlike observability platform alerts, which can only be set on metrics, in-stream
alerts can be set for both metrics and logs. This means that you can design your Pipeline to be
responsive to alert conditions as they happen.
In-stream alerts on Pipeline data provide a low-cost opportunity to analyze and detect important
signals before data gets optimized and routed to its destinations.
