8 Assessing the health of your systems is critical in a stable and robust integration solution.
9 Getting alerts when something deviates is crucial to guarantee a stable and robust integration solution.
10
11 In this microlearning, we will educate you on Alerting within the Manage phase of eMagiz.
12
13 == 1. Prerequisites ==
14
15 * Basic knowledge of the eMagiz platform
16
17 == 2. Key concepts ==

19 This microlearning centers around setting up the alerting in eMagiz.
20 With alerting, we mean: Configuring thresholds that raise an alert when the point is passed.
21
22 There are three areas in which alerting is configured for you by eMagiz:
23
24 * Error Messages
25 * Measurement Data
26 * Missing Data
27
28 From eMagiz, we provide a standard set of alerts based on best practices we have acquired in the last ten years of monitoring eMagiz models.

32 Assessing the health of your systems is critical in a stable and robust integration solution.
33 Getting alerts when something deviates is crucial to guarantee a stable and robust integration solution.
34
35 First, we look at the standard set of alerts generated by eMagiz and explain them to you. Building on that, we will show where in eMagiz you can see the list of triggered alerts on your environment in the last two weeks.
36
37 === 3.1 Standard Static Alerting ===
38
39 * This list of alerts is predefined for all of our customer models
40 * This list cannot be altered or deleted by a user
41 * The list is generated based on a set of best practices acquired during the last ten years of monitoring eMagiz models
42 * You can view the list under Manage -> Triggers
43 * We will expand this functionality by offering the possibility of creating a dynamic trigger that is specific for a specific environment of your model
44 * All triggers have a time window on which they are triggered; most static alerts are based on a 10-minute time window.

48 As you can see in the list of alerts we generate for you, most of them should look familiar. Most of them probably look familiar to you, as they were also available in the current list of alerts. Some new additions on the list are related to API endpoints to give enhanced possibilities for monitoring your API endpoints in eMagiz.

50 === 3.2 Alerting Overview ===
51
52 When you navigate to Manage -> Alerting (-> Alerts), you will see all alerts that have been triggered in the last two weeks.

55
56 In this overview, you have various options to filter your results to get a sense of what is happening within your model in a specific environment.
57
58 == 4. Assignment ==
59
60 The assignment is simple this time. Navigate to the trigger (Manage -> Alerting -> Triggers) overview in eMagiz and analyze the static triggers eMagiz generates by default.
61 This assignment can be completed with the help of an associated Mendix project linked to the (Academy) project that you created/used in the previous assignment.
62
63 == 5. Key takeaways ==
64
65 There are three areas in which you can configure alerting:
66
67 * Error Messages
68 * Measurement Data
69 * Missing Data
