This training video from SolarWinds Academy provides a high-level overview of how the alerting process works within SolarWinds software. Technical trainer Cheryl Nomanson explains the step-by-step workflow, starting with the alerting engine continuously scanning the database for conditions that meet alert trigger thresholds.

Network device monitoring is often a mess of polling, graphs, and alerts that don't lead to answers. In this webinar, we'll show how to monitor routers, switches, and firewalls in a way that quickly surfaces what matters: interface health, errors, drops, saturation, latency signals, and performance regressions—without drowning in noise. You'll learn how Netdata turns raw SNMP metrics into high-signal insights using automated anomaly detection and AI-assisted troubleshooting, so your team can move from 'something is wrong' to 'here's the root cause' faster.
