Answer
Metric Alerts offer near-real time monitoring capability and Metric Alerts for Logs forks data from log source to ensure the same.
Metric Alerts are stateful - only notifying once when alert is fired and once when alert is resolved; as opposed to Log alerts, which are stateless and keep firing at every interval if the alert condition is met.
Metric Alerts for Log provide multiple dimensions, allowing filtering to specific values like Computers, OS Type, etc. simpler; without the need for penning query in analytics.
