Integrations

Cortex supports integrations across essential use cases for engineering excellence, including alert management, error and issue tracking, git, ownership, security, and more.

See the Integrations page on the Cortex web site to filter available integrations by use case.

Integration rate limiting

Cortex has built a distributed self-throttling system to ensure that certain functionality, such as CQL evaluations or background syncs to pull data from integrations, are not going over the rate limit thresholds for specific vendors. It handles different rate limit thresholds for different APIs within the same integration, which is common for git APIs such as Bitbucket.

The system is designed to proactively throttle before hitting a 429 from the vendor, and it works regardless of how many evaluators are trying to access that integration. Note that this system does not track other requests with the same token or undocumented limits set by vendors.
