The initiative alert feature allows you to enable the alert service of key metrics for a cloud service with a single click. This feature allows you to build an alert system for multiple metrics in cloud services. If an exception occurs, CloudMonitor sends an alert notification. You can then handle the exception at the earliest opportunity.
