How to deal with alert fatigue head-on

Alert fatigue is a common issue impacting various sectors, including healthcare, aviation, IT, and engineering teams. Teams often face an overwhelming volume of alerts, lack ongoing alert management, lack clarity around triggered alerts, and lack correlation between similar alerts, among other causes. To combat alert fatigue, teams can treat every alert as an incident, filter and prioritize alerts, tune alert thresholds, look for patterns and groups, and consider human factors in on-call rotations.
