Feel free to include a sentence describing your usage. For example, what did you do before Robusta? Why did you choose it over alternatives?
At Space Telescope Science Institute we're using Robusta to simplify and standardize k8s alerting. Previously, we were using kube-prometheus-stack but the default alerts were too noisy, configuration had many moving pieces, and the learning curve for PromQL is fairly steep. Robusta lets us filter down existing Prometheus alerts by updating the Robusta helm chart, which is a significantly more intuitive and user-friendly interface.
At deranged we manage kubernetes clusters for multiple clients. Previously, we had noisy channels in Slack, one for each client, with alerts from the kube-prometheus-preset. After switching to Robusta, we only have a single Slack channel with much more informative alerts. There are two added benefits for us. For one, it's way easier to inspect previous alerts, which Robusta saves, where alertmanager has no history. Also, it's far easier to compare deployments across out clusters, so we notice when we have discrepancies in deployed versions on the clusters.
At Binbash we adopted Robusta for one of our clients in order to have enriched alerts coming from both in-cluster Kubernetes events and an out-of-cluster Alert Manager installation. Soon we will be using Robusta Automations to create alerts and remediations that are more specific to the scenarios our applications and services present.
