Forward alerts to an alert receiver with alert manager in Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus

When an alert is raised by an alert rule, it is sent to alert manager. Alert manager performs functions such as de-duplicating alerts, inhibiting alerts during maintenance, or grouping them as needed. It then forwards the alert as a message to an alert receiver. You can set up an alert receiver that can notify operators, have automated responses, or respond to the alerts in other ways.

You can configure Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) and PagerDuty as alert receivers in Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus. The following topics describe how to create and configure your alert receiver.
