100 is tantamount to turning off the log. I prefer 2.
select count(ENTITY_NAME)
from ALERT_EVENTS
where EVENT_TIME > date_sub(now(),INTERVAL 60 MINUTE)
and status=upper('failed')
and ENTITY_NAME='FETL-ImpressionRC-conversion';
begs for the _compound_ index
INDEX(ENTITY_NAME, EVENT_TIME)
This would be even better:
INDEX(ENTITY_NAME, status, EVENT_TIME)
COUNT(*) should be used if you don't need to check the column for being NULL.

That is probably the entire table. Will the table grow? If so, the query will get
slower. Meanwhile, the index I suggested will (probably) be much faster.
