Flapping alert firing all night

On-callReliability & on-callMid–Senior~20 min

An alert keeps flapping (firing and resolving) every few minutes all night and is never actionable. How do you handle it tonight and longer-term?

Stop the bleeding first (mitigate), then form hypotheses from real signals. Separate root cause from symptom, communicate status as you go, and close with what prevents a repeat.
