Integrate Opsgenie with Google Cloud's operations suite
Overview
What does the integration offer?
Google Cloud's operations suite (formerly Google Stackdriver) is natively integrated with the Google cloud platform, Amazon Web Services, and popular open-source packages. Google Cloud's operations suite provides various metrics, dashboards, alerting, log management, reporting, and tracing capabilities.
Opsgenie has a Webhook integration with Google Cloud's operations suite. Using the integration, Google Cloud's operations suite sends incidents to Opsgenie API with detailed information. Opsgenie acts as a dispatcher for Google Cloud's operations suite alerts, determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules – notifies via email, text messages (SMS), phone calls, and iPhone & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until they are acknowledged or closed.
How does the integration work?
When the state of a notification is open in Google Cloud's operations suite, an alert is automatically created in Opsgenie through the integration.
When the state of a notification is closed in Google Cloud's operations suite, the related alert is closed automatically in Opsgenie.
When the state of a notification is acknowledged in Google Cloud's operations suite, the related alert is acknowledged automatically in Opsgenie.
