[Meta] Alerting-Infra requirements

[gmmorris]

This is a meta issue for the Alerting team to keep track of the different requirements raised by Infra.

Below is a table of requirements identified in @Crazybus 's POC into using Alerting for Infra's needs:

Status	Requirement	Owning Team	Relevant Issue(s)	Notes	Infra Priority
Open	Alerting is not separated out per monitor in Uptime Monitor Alert Type	@elastic/uptime	#74659	Might have been addressed by #74659 🎉	Medium
Closed. Should be delivered in 7.11	Close a PagerDuty incident when a monitor's Alert resolves	@elastic/kibana-alerting-services	#49405 #76908 #77772	We will first have to add Open	Blocker
Open	Separate criteria for "down" and "recovery" in Uptime Monitor Alert Type (error rate is over 75% for an event window, recovery requires 0% for the same event window.)	@elastic/uptime	?		High
Open	There is no Certificate expiry Alert Type	(@elastic/uptime ? )		Someone will have to develop this custom Alert Type, it might be APM, but I don't want to speak for them. 🤷‍♂️	low
Open	Programmatic creation of Alerts	@elastic/kibana-alerting-services		We do provide a full HTTP API and we have the CLI tool @pmuellr created, which isn't officially supported by the team. We will discuss this in the Alerting team.	Blocker
Open	Adjust the sensitivity/severity and action configuration of alerting per monitor	@elastic/uptime & @elastic/kibana-alerting-services		This might require some investigation and clearer requirements, but this should be possible as far as the framework is concerned, but would require work on the APM side. I suspect it the implementation might be blocked on #64077, but that totally depends on how APM choose to implement this.	Medium
Open	Alerting logic that will handle flappy alerting with different collection durations	@elastic/uptime	?		High
Open	Ability to include extra information links to documentation for troubleshooting the down service or links to other places like our Inventory in Pager Duty Action	@elastic/kibana-alerting-services	#76910		High
Open	Creating alerts per multiple columns in Metric Threshold Alert Type	@elastic/uptime	?		medium
Open	Preview in Metric Threshold Alert Type	@elastic/uptime	?		low
Open	Index Threshold doesn't support filtering	@elastic/kibana-alerting-services	#66046	This is hasn't been prioritised for 7.x, as we're hoping APM's AlertTypes can cover your needs, but I'll raise that this has come up again and we might reprioritise	medium
Open	There is no alert type which supports Elasticsearch Query DSL combined with Painless scripting	@elastic/kibana-alerting-services	#61313		high

@gmmorris this is great! Can we also update the team dependencies on alerting meta issue as well and add a section there? We're be using that issue as the source of truth but it can reference this issue for further details (similar to SIEM).
