About Managing as Code

Manage check rules, notification channels, and SLOs as infrastructure as code using version control, automated deployment pipelines, and code review processes. Define check rules in YAML or HCL configuration files stored in Git and deployed through CI/CD. SLOs are managed as OpenSLO documents through the SLO API; see Manage SLOs as Code.

Available Tools

Dash0 provides three infrastructure as code tools for managing check rules:

• Dash0 Operator for Kubernetes - Define check rules as PrometheusRule custom resources for workflows.
• Dash0 Terraform Provider - Manage check rules in Terraform configurations alongside other infrastructure using the dash0_check_rule resource.
• Dash0 CLI - Script check rule operations for batch deployments and automation.

All tools support creating, updating, and deleting check rules. The same approach applies to dashboards, views, and synthetic checks.
