Monitoring Vertica Using Notifiers

A Vertica notifier is a push-based mechanism capable of sending messages from Vertica to endpoints such as Apache Kafka. For example, you could configure a long-running script to send notifications at various stages and then at the completion of a task.

To use a notifier, follow these steps:

1. Create a notifier with CREATE NOTIFIER.
2. Use the notifier to send messages from Vertica to the end point with the meta-function NOTIFY.
