Integration
PagerDuty incidents from consensus checks
Keep your PagerDuty schedules. Let Tallwatch open incidents when regions agree — fewer PD tickets from single-probe blips. Multi-region consensus is the filter in front of every channel.
PagerDuty keeps the schedule
Rotations and acknowledgements can stay in PagerDuty. Tallwatch is the trigger that opens the incident.
Consensus as the filter
PD should see multi-region agreement, not every flaky TCP blip from one path.
Or use Tallwatch on-call
Some teams start with Tallwatch on-call on Free, then add PagerDuty later. Both work.
Lifecycle follows Tallwatch
Open and resolve track the Tallwatch incident so PD tickets do not linger after recovery.
