PagerDuty and Elastic

Get the right data-driven alerts to the right people at the right time.

Solution overview

PagerDuty and Elastic provide an integrated solution for real-time alerting so you can make data-driven decisions, fast. When combined with the speed and scalability of the Elastic Stack, the PagerDuty platform's scheduling and notification capabilities enable companies to proactively monitor and respond to digital system issues.

Build a dynamic monitoring and alerting experience to keep a pulse on performance. PagerDuty integrates directly with the Elastic alerting framework, which powers the threshold and metric alert creation user interface within Kibana as well as the native alerting experience for apps like Metrics, Uptime, APM, and SIEM.

Any alert, no matter where it is created, can tie in directly to PagerDuty and trigger a workflow complete with necessary system information from the Elastic Stack.
