Make CDF data sources compatible with Grafana alert

Hi, Zahra.

Thank you for raising this. We’d like to support as many features in Grafana as possible.

Unfortunately, this would require a complete rewrite of the Grafana plugin in another computer language than what we are using today, since it's only "backend" datasources in Grafana that support Grafana Alerting.

Based on the Grafana documentation: https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/fundamentals/data-source-alerting/

If you are creating your own data source plugin, make sure it is a backend plugin as Grafana Alerting requires this in order to be able to evaluate rules using the data source. Frontend data sources are not supported, because the evaluation engine runs on the backend.

Best regards, Knut 

Hi! We have identified similar needs to set up alarms for CDF in Grafana. Is this something Cognite with put on agenda in the near future?

Hi All, this is something that we would also like to implement and set up alarms for CDF with Grafana. Can we sign-up and push this as an initiative for the future? 

Are there other methods of reporting and alerting with CDF?

Thank you,

Michael
