Integrate Opsgenie with Amazon RDS
Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service) provides cost-efficient, resizeable capacity for an industry-standard relational database and manages common database administration tasks.
What does Opsgenie offer Amazon RDS users?
Amazon RDS sends notifications of database events through SNS. Opsgenie acts as a dispatcher for these notifications, determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies them using email, text messages (SMS), phone calls and iPhone & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed. Amazon RDS sends DB notifications like shutdown or backup etc., and Opsgenie ensures the right people are notified.
Functionality of the integration
When an alert is created in Amazon RDS, an alert is created in Opsgenie automatically through the integration.
Add Amazon RDS Integration in Opsgenie
Under the Free and Essentials plans, the tabs under the Team dashboard are limited to Main, Integrations, Members, and Activity Stream.
2. Specify who is notified of RDS alerts using the Teams field. Auto-complete suggestions are provided as you type.
An alternative for Step 1) and Step 2) is to add the integration from the Team Dashboard of the team which will own the integration. To add an integration directly to a team, navigate to the Team Dashboard and open Integrations tab. Click Add Integration and select the integration that you would like to add.
3. Copy the integration URL which includes Opsgenie endpoint as well as the API key.
4. Click Save Integration.
