Get phone and SMS alerts fromDBmarlin
DBmarlin raises the alarm — Spike makes sure a human hears it. Every DBmarlin alert becomes an incident with on-call schedules, escalations, and alerts on phone, SMS, Slack, email, WhatsApp, and Teams.
Set up with AI
I use DBmarlin for monitoring and Spike for on-call and incident management. Walk me through connecting them: create a DBmarlin integration in Spike, copy its webhook URL, and add that webhook to DBmarlin alert settings. Then help me send a test alert to confirm incidents show up in Spike.
What is DBmarlin?
DBmarlin keeps watch over your systems and raises an alert the moment something goes wrong — a failed check, an error spike, a service that stops responding.
Connected to Spike, those alerts become incidents: the right on-call person gets a phone call and SMS within seconds, similar incidents are grouped to cut the noise, and everything is tracked until it is resolved.
How to set up DBmarlin alerts
Every Spike integration is a unique webhook URL. Paste it into DBmarlin and alerts start flowing — no agents, no code.
Step 1: Create a DBmarlin integration in Spike
In your Spike dashboard, open Integrations and choose DBmarlin. Spike generates a unique webhook URL for this integration — copy it.
Step 2: Add the webhook in DBmarlin
Open the alert or notification settings in DBmarlin, add a webhook endpoint, and paste your Spike webhook URL.
Step 3: Send a test alert
Trigger a test from DBmarlin. The alert lands in Spike as an incident and your on-call team is alerted immediately.
That's it — DBmarlin alerts now page whoever is on call.
