Alert clustering based on matching datasource instances across grouped devices
I have a device group that has the same datasource applied. This datasource auto-discovers and will spin up matching instances across all devices in the group. I would like to have clustered alerts based on the matched instances across all devices in the group.
For example, (pardon the ASCII-like visualization)
ClusterGroup |__ Device1 | |__ DatasourceA | |_ Instance_ABC | |_ Datapoint_I | |_ Datapoint_II | |_ Instance_DEF | |_ Datapoint_I | |_ Datapoint_II | |_ Instance_GHI | |_ Datapoint_I | |_ Datapoint_II |__ Device2 | |__ DatasourceA | |_ Instance_ABC | |_ Datapoint_I | |_ Datapoint_II | |_ Instance_DEF | |_ Datapoint_I | |_ Datapoint_II | |_ Instance_GHI | |_ Datapoint_I | |_ Datapoint_II |__ Device3 |__ DatasourceA |_ Instance_ABC |_ Datapoint_I |_ Datapoint_II |_ Instance_DEF |_ Datapoint_I |_ Datapoint_II |_ Instance_GHI |_ Datapoint_I |_ Datapoint_II
If Instance_ABC's Datapoint_I is alerting at the specified cluster threshold in my hypothetical group, I want to generate a cluster alert. If some time afterwards, the situation in my environment gets worse and Instance_GHI's Datapoint_II is alerting at the specified cluster threshold, I want another cluster alert for that instance-datapoint as well.
