These methods work independently, which means you can enable both at the same time to send alert notifications to any number of endpoints. + +Both methods use a node's health alerts to generate the content of a notification. + +Read our documentation on [configuring alerts](/src/health/REFERENCE.md) to change the preconfigured thresholds or to create tailored alerts for your infrastructure. + +- Netdata Cloud provides centralized alert notifications, utilizing the health status data already sent to Netdata Cloud from connected nodes to send alerts to configured integrations. [Supported integrations](/docs/alerts-&-notifications/notifications/centralized-cloud-notifications) include Amazon SNS, Discord, Slack, Splunk, and others. + +- The Netdata Agent offers a [wider range of notification options](/docs/alerts-&-notifications/notifications/agent-dispatched-notifications) directly from the agent itself. You can choose from over a dozen services, including email, Slack, PagerDuty, Twilio, and others, for more granular control over notifications on each node. + +The Netdata Agent is a health watchdog for the health and performance of your systems, services, and applications. 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 pre-configured alerts for every app/service [the Agent collects metrics from](/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](/docs/alerts-and-notifications/notifications/README.md), [customize alerts](/src/health/REFERENCE.md), and [disable/silence](/src/health/REFERENCE.md#disable-or-silence-alerts) alerts. -- cgit v1.2.3
