#### Prometheus Alertmanager

The Alertmanager handles alerts sent by client applications such as the Prometheus server.
It takes care of deduplicating, grouping, and routing them to the correct receiver integration
such as email, PagerDuty, or OpsGenie. It also takes care of silencing and inhibition of alerts.

This is an unofficial snap which builds and re-packs the source provided by the Prometheus team (<https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager>).
