Frequently asked questions
What is observability alerting?
Observability alerting evaluates metrics, logs, traces, availability checks, events, or business data and turns matching conditions into notifications and events that a team can investigate.
Which alert rules does Guance support?
Guance supports threshold, sudden-change, log, DQL, custom-query, and built-in detection rules across infrastructure, applications, logs, networks, availability, and business data.
How can teams reduce alert noise?
Use severity levels, mute policies, recovery notifications, tags, ownership routing, and event grouping so repeated signals do not notify unrelated teams.
What happens after an alert fires?
The alert becomes an event that can be investigated with related logs, traces, metrics, infrastructure, network, and change context.
