SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the complex process of setting up comprehensive observability for applications and infrastructure using the New Relic platform, reducing the time spent on manual configuration and troubleshooting.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Infrastructure Monitoring: Deploy New Relic Infrastructure agents on Linux, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Application Performance Monitoring (APM): Instrument applications written in Node.js, Python, Java, and Go with APM agents.
  • Custom Instrumentation: Add custom events, metrics, and spans for deeper insights.
  • NRQL & Dashboards: Write NRQL queries and define dashboard JSON for data visualization.
  • Alerting: Configure alert policies and conditions based on NRQL or APM metrics.
  • Logs in Context: Integrate application logs with New Relic for correlated analysis.
  • Use Case: You've just deployed a new microservice and need to ensure its performance and reliability. Use this Skill to install the APM agent, configure basic alerts for high error rates, and set up a dashboard to monitor key transaction metrics.

Quick Start

Configure the New Relic infrastructure agent on Linux using your API key and account ID.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure New Relic APM agents for Node.js and Python applications?

To configure New Relic APM agents for Node.js and Python, you instrument your application code using the provided agents. This enables comprehensive application performance monitoring, capturing key transaction metrics and error rates.

What is the best way to deploy New Relic infrastructure monitoring on Kubernetes and Docker?

The best way to deploy New Relic infrastructure monitoring on Kubernetes and Docker is by installing the designated infrastructure agents. This provides comprehensive visibility into your containerized environments and underlying hosts.

Can I use NRQL to create custom dashboards and alert policies in New Relic?

Yes, you can use NRQL to query your observability data and define dashboard JSON for visualization. You can also configure alert policies and conditions based on those NRQL queries or APM metrics.

Does New Relic observability support integrating application logs for correlated analysis?

Yes, New Relic observability supports integrating application logs in context. This allows you to correlate log data directly with APM metrics and infrastructure monitoring data for deeper troubleshooting.

How do I instrument Java and Go applications for custom metrics and spans with New Relic?

You instrument Java and Go applications by deploying New Relic APM agents and adding custom instrumentation. This process captures custom events, metrics, and spans for deeper performance insights.

When do I need to configure custom alert conditions for high error rates in New Relic?

You need to configure custom alert conditions for high error rates when deploying new microservices to ensure reliability. This involves setting up alert policies based on APM metrics to notify you of performance degradation.
