This pull request updates our fork of Alertmanager to commit 65bdab0, which is based on commit 5658f8c in Prometheus Alertmanager. It applies the changes from grafana/alerting#155 which removes the overrides for validation of alerts, labels and silences that we had put in place to allow alerts and silences to work for non-Prometheus datasources. However, as this is now supported in Alertmanager with the UTF-8 work, we can use the new upstream functions and remove these overrides. The compat package is a package in Alertmanager that takes care of backwards compatibility when parsing matchers, validating alerts, labels and silences. It has three modes: classic mode, UTF-8 strict mode, fallback mode. These modes are controlled via compat.InitFromFlags. Grafana initializes the compat package without any feature flags, which is the equivalent of fallback mode. Classic and UTF-8 strict mode are used in Mimir. While Grafana Managed Alerts have no need for fallback mode, Grafana can still be used as an interface to manage the configurations of Mimir Alertmanagers and view configurations of Prometheus Alertmanager, and those installations might not have migrated or being running on older versions. Such installations behave as if in classic mode, and Grafana must be able to parse their configurations to interact with them for some period of time. As such, Grafana uses fallback mode until we are ready to drop support for outdated installations of Mimir and the Prometheus Alertmanager.
The open-source platform for monitoring and observability
Grafana allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your metrics no matter where they are stored. Create, explore, and share dashboards with your team and foster a data-driven culture:
- Visualizations: Fast and flexible client side graphs with a multitude of options. Panel plugins offer many different ways to visualize metrics and logs.
- Dynamic Dashboards: Create dynamic & reusable dashboards with template variables that appear as dropdowns at the top of the dashboard.
- Explore Metrics: Explore your data through ad-hoc queries and dynamic drilldown. Split view and compare different time ranges, queries and data sources side by side.
- Explore Logs: Experience the magic of switching from metrics to logs with preserved label filters. Quickly search through all your logs or streaming them live.
- Alerting: Visually define alert rules for your most important metrics. Grafana will continuously evaluate and send notifications to systems like Slack, PagerDuty, VictorOps, OpsGenie.
- Mixed Data Sources: Mix different data sources in the same graph! You can specify a data source on a per-query basis. This works for even custom datasources.
