# AWS DevOps Guru Integration
Integrate AWS DevOps Guru with ilert to detect anomalies in operations, turn performance insights into alerts, and accelerate proactive incident response.
[AWS DevOps Guru](https://aws.amazon.com/devops-guru/) is a machine learning-powered service that identifies operational issues and anomalies within applications running on AWS, providing insights and recommendations for performance improvements. By integrating AWS DevOps Guru with ilert, users gain proactive incident management capabilities, where detected anomalies and potential issues automatically trigger alerts in ilert.
## How this integration works
AWS DevOps Guru provides insights into operational anomalies. Notifications are published to specific Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) topics; the events are then sent to ilert.
### Architecture
## In ilert: Create an Amazon SNS alert source
1. Go to **Alerting** → **Alert sources** and click **Create new alert source**.
2. Search for **Amazon SNS**, click its tile, and click **Next**.
3. Give your alert source a name, optionally assign teams, and click **Next**.
4. Choose who gets notified: select **Use existing escalation policy** and pick a policy, or **Generate new escalation policy** to start with a basic one that notifies you first. Click **Next**.
Pick an existing escalation policy, or generate a basic one without leaving the wizard.
5. Select **Default grouping** and click **Continue setup**. It groups events by the alert key the integration sets; the other [grouping options](/alerting/configure-alerting/alert-sources.md#event-grouping) are easier to judge once events are arriving.
6. The next page shows more settings, such as notification priority and alert templates. Click **Finish setup** for now; you can change them later.
7. On the final page, ilert shows the integration key and URL for this alert source. You will need them later in this guide.
## In AWS Simple Notification Service(SNS): Create a new topic
1. On the sidebar, click on **Topics** **->** **Create topic**.
2. Choose **Standard** and enter a topic **Name**.
3. Save the topic.
4. Now click on **Create subscription**.
5. Select 'HTTPS' as **Protocol** and enter the alert source URL previously generated in ilert into the **Endpoint** field.
## In AWS DevOps Guru: Add a Notification
1. Navigate to Settings.
2. Under the **Navigation** settings, choose 'Select an existing SNS topic'.
3. Select the newly created topic from before.
## FAQ
**Will alerts in ilert be resolved automatically?**
No, but you can use the **eventType** custom attribute to resolve an incident in specified **incidentKey**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.ilert.com/integrations/inbound-integrations/aws-devops-guru-integration.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
