Project Name: Email Alert Management
Background: As there are many supporting applications tools running, the number of alert and warning from the applications is getting bigger. It is annoying when receiving hundreds of emails per day triggered by alerts from many applications. Therefore we need a mechanism to manage all the alerts.
Aim: To provide an application that will sit between supporting applications and end users so that we can set parameters to filter the alerts, and trigger the alert when the parameters are satisfied. parameters used are number of alert received, alert priority, alert status, notification list
Technology: Linux, Oracle10g, Java, GWT (Google Web Toolkit), Apache Tomcat, Dovecot, JavaMail API
Estimated time: 1 month
