We are new to Confluence.
Is there any possibility to build a Document library in Confluence similar to Sharepoint Document library, Where we can manage the version history, alerts, columns, search tags... etc.
Looks like smart attachments is not available for Confluence Could, Please suggest an alternatives..Thanks

Confluence is not a file storage place where documents go to die. It is a wiki. The pages in it are intended to be living documents.
Because it's not a file share, its file handling is pretty primitive - you attach files to pages, they get a simple sequential version, and there are macros that can read the attachments to extract bits of the content, or all of it, and display it on a page.
Pages are versioned, with a full history, and have tools to compare versions, they have a page tree ("folders"), alerts, tables, tags and many more functions - they are the main thing you should be thinking of as "documents"
The structure of Confluence Cloud does not let people write apps that do document management - it's not a good way to use Confluence.
What @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- said. Even your question title kind of gets it wrong and is predicated on the clumsy nature of SharePointless. You don't need a documentation library for Confluence. It is best USED as your documentation library as is.
I predict when you pivot to this mode of usage, you will come to view SharePoint as I do but won't describe because this is a family program
