Alert Routing based on Datasource grouping

Hey,

We would really like to see a way to route alerts based on Datasource group.

Currently, the options are to route based on server or datasource.

Server is much too broad as we have different people responsible for different things on a server (i.e. Windows, SQL, IIS)

Datasource is much too granular as we have way to many datasources to keep up with individual rules.

Datasrouce Groups seem like the happy medium as we can classify all SQL related datasrouces in a single group, and provide one rule for all of those datasources etc. etc.

I've mentioned this at a meetup, but I'm not sure it actually made it to a feature request.


Thanks!

    We're looking at different config options for alert rules and widgets in 2017.  This one is on the list - and we'd love to hear any other requests.

    Maybe its just me, but I find the Alert Rules really poor so it would be great to see some improvements.

    The things we would like is the ability to:

    • add multiple Escalation Chains per Alert Rule
    • allow multi tenant clients to manage/create there own Escalation Chains and Alert rules

    Are there any updates proposed for these?
