A system that can, using reduced memory resources, receive by a transaction channel monitoring layer, an alert issued by a server application of a server associated with a transaction channel of a transaction system regarding a problem associated with the transaction channel, and subsequently retrieve, by a real-time notification layer, the alert received by the transaction channel monitoring layer. The system can use information contained in the alert, such as for example, an identification of the transaction channel associated with the alert, an alert type, and an alert severity, to automatically determine a form of a notification to be generated, the content of the notification, and at least one recipient of the notification. The system can then automatically generate the notification, and automatically transmit the notification in real-time to the at least one recipient of the notification.
