Redgate SQL Monitor Integration Guide
Redgate SQL Monitor is a SQL Server monitoring and alerting tool, designed to allow Ops teams to supervise many SQL Server instances across different networks, hosted on "bare metal" servers, in Virtual Machines, or in the cloud.
What can Zenduty do for Redgate SQL Monitor users?
With Redgate SQL Monitor's Integration, Zenduty sends new alerts to the right team and notifies them based on on-call schedules via email, text messages(SMS), phone calls(Voice), Slack, Microsoft Teams and iOS & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed. Zenduty provides your NOC, SRE and application engineers with detailed context around the Network Monitor alert along with playbooks and a complete incident command framework to triage, remediate and resolve incidents with speed.
You can also use Alert Rules to custom route specific Redgate SQL Monitor alerts to specific users, teams or escalation policies, write suppression rules, auto add notes, responders and incident tasks.
