Working with alerts, costs, and reports
Certain Cloudera Observability on premises features enable you to define cost centers for planning,
budgeting, and justifying resources and create alert
actions that monitor your workloads and trigger a corrective action when
applicable.
Understanding Cloudera Observability Financial Governance feature The Cloudera Observability Financial Governance feature collects CPU, GPU, memory, data read, data written, and resource usage data from your environment, allocates those charges to your custom cost centers, and visually displays the results. It provides in-depth visibility into the resource usage of your workloads and services, as well as the costs of your environment’s infrastructure, which can be used for planning, budgeting, and forecasting.Triggering action alerts across jobs and queries You can trigger action alerts, that are defined by you, across your workload applications, jobs, and queries whilst they are running with the Cloudera Observability on premises Auto Actions feature. When a workload application, job, or query matches the action's defined threshold value, the auto action event is triggered. For example, you may have a scenario where too much memory is being allocated to specific jobs and you would like to take an action before a problem occurs, such as avoiding memory exhaustion. In this case, you can create an auto action that triggers a notification alert when a job is identified as having an over-allocation of memory. You can then either manually take steps to alleviate the problem or include the Kill action option that stops the job in question.
