Integrating SolarWinds Database Performance Monitor with PagerDuty

It's easy to integrate SoalrWinds® Database Performance Monitor (DPM) with your existing workflow and team tools. Included on our growing list of integrations is PagerDuty. If you're not familiar with PagerDuty, it's a SaaS solution designed to help manage teams' workflows after an incident is opened: it helps you handle alert routing, message delivery, on-call rotation, scheduled maintenance, escalation, and more. (If you're building these things yourself, you're probably doing it wrong). Integrating DPM with PagerDuty is quick and simple. In the DPM dashboard, under your environment's settings, you'll find two key preferences for this:
  1. How should events be aggregated into incidents? This is essentially a GROUP BY. You can select options such as hostname and event type.
  2. How should incidents be notified? Here you can configure integrations such as PagerDuty, publish the incidents to the integrations, and then you're done.
