New RelicMonitoring & ObservabilityApplication and infrastructure telemetry in one workflow
Key capabilities
- APM: Inspect transaction performance, errors and related application context.
- Infrastructure: Collect host or Kubernetes signals where agents and integrations are configured.
- Logs: Forward logs and connect them to troubleshooting workflows.
Where New Relic fits
Application monitoring, infrastructure monitoring, logs and alerting are adjacent observability capabilities.
Positioning and limitations
Consider New Relic when an incident requires developers and operators to trace behavior across a service and its hosts or containers. Begin with one important service and its dependencies.
The pilot question is whether a responder can move from an alert to the affected service and supporting resource without manually joining multiple datasets.
