What i miss with using the grafana alarm is to trigger on data not in the database.. In our case we have for example fire alarm which is a signal in the IoT-system but not save to DB and when alarm goes off we send the latest ERP-data with logged in users in the house as a PDF on several email and also to some printers so management can grab the firelist on the way out.. I can think of a bunch of other use cases where you want to trigger an alarm on live data. I made an alarm plugin some time ago to handle this in benthos. It would be nice to have a feature in the console to setup and handle all these alarm direct on kafka or mqtt data.. Atm i am doing much of the alarming in nodered since it easy to setup multiple conditions and also use cached data.
