Smart Alerting
Set up intelligent cost alerts that detect anomalies, budget breaches, and wasteful patterns before they impact your cloud bill.
How it Works
Three steps from setup to savings
Define
Set budget thresholds and anomaly rules at any scope (cluster, namespace, team, or individual workload) in minutes.
Detect
Kubeadapt monitors spending in real time and fires alerts within minutes of a threshold breach or anomalous pattern.
Route
Alerts are delivered to your team via Slack, PagerDuty, email, or OpsGenie based on severity and configured escalation paths.
What's Included
Proactive Cost Anomaly Detection
Anomaly Detection
Automatically detect unusual spending patterns using statistical models trained on your historical data.
- Statistical baselines detect unusual cost spikes within minutes, not hours
- Statistical models adapt to your specific spending patterns over time
Budget Alerts
Set spending thresholds at any level: cluster, namespace, team, or workload. Percentage-based triggers included.
- Trigger alerts at 50%, 80%, 90%, and 100% of budget thresholds
- Scope budgets to any level: cluster, namespace, team, or individual workload
Severity Levels
Classify alerts by severity (critical, warning, info) with different escalation paths for each level.
- Three severity tiers with configurable escalation paths and timeouts
- Auto-escalate unacknowledged warnings to critical after a defined window
Multi-Channel Delivery
Route alerts to Slack, PagerDuty, email, OpsGenie, or custom webhooks based on severity and scope.
- Route alerts to Slack, PagerDuty, email, OpsGenie, or custom webhooks
- Different channels per severity: info to Slack, critical to PagerDuty
Alert Analytics
Track alert frequency, resolution time, and false positive rates to continuously improve alert quality.
- Dashboard showing alert volume, mean-time-to-acknowledge, and resolution rates
- Identify noisy alerts and tune thresholds based on historical false positive data
Quiet Hours & Suppression
Configure maintenance windows and suppression rules to reduce alert fatigue during known events.
- Schedule maintenance windows where non-critical alerts are suppressed
- One-click suppression for known events like planned migrations or deployments
