We've +worked closely with our community of DevOps engineers, SREs, and developers to define hundreds of production-ready +alerts that work without any configuration. + +The Agent's health monitoring system is also dynamic and fully customizable. You can write entirely new alerts, tune the +community-configured alerts for every app/service [the Agent collects metrics from](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/collectors/COLLECTORS.md), or +silence anything you're not interested in. You can even power complex lookups by running statistical algorithms against +your metrics. + +You can [use various alert notification methods](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/edit/master/docs/monitor/enable-notifications.md), +[customize alerts](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/health/REFERENCE.md), and +[disable/silence](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/health/REFERENCE.md#disable-or-silence-alerts) alerts. |
