Manage incident reporting in PagerDuty and CrateDB

This workflow automatically monitors the functionality of a factory. The workflow logs machine data coming from factory sensors in a CrateDB database, generates an incident report in PagerDuty, and notifies the responsible staff members when the temperature of a machine crosses the threshold value.

This workflow builds on a workflow that generates factory data.

Read more about this use case and how to build both workflows with step-by-step instructions in the blog post How to automate your factory's incident reporting.

Prerequisites

A PagerDuty account and credentials AMQP, an ActiveMQ  connection, and credentials A CrateDB instance running locally or on a server, and credentials.

Nodes

AMQP Trigger node starts the workflow. IF node filters sensor values higher than 50°C. PagerDuty node creates an incident in the account. Set nodes set the required incident information and sensor data, respectively. CrateDB nodes ingest the information data and machine sensor data, respectively. Function node converts degrees from Celsius to Fahrenheit.
