# Alertmanager data source
Grafana includes built-in support for Prometheus Alertmanager. Once you add it as a data source, you can use the [Grafana Alerting UI](/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/) to manage silences, contact points as well as notification policies. A drop-down option in these pages allows you to switch between Grafana and any configured Alertmanager data sources.
Grafana includes built-in support for Alertmanager implementations in Prometheus and Mimir.
Once you add it as a data source, you can use the [Grafana Alerting UI](/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/) to manage silences, contact points, and notification policies.
To switch between Grafana and any configured Alertmanager data sources, you can select your preference from a drop-down option in those databases' data source settings pages.
## Alertmanager implementations
[Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) and [Grafana Mimir](/docs/mimir/latest/) (default) implementations of Alertmanager are supported. You can specify implementation in the data source settings page. In case of Prometheus contact points and notification policies are read-only in the Grafana Alerting UI, as it does not support updating configuration via HTTP API.
