Software analytics leader New Relic, Inc.(NYSE:NEWR) today unveiled New Relic Infrastructure, a new monitoring solution designed to provide deep, real-time visibility into a company’s dynamic cloud and hybrid infrastructure and integrate seamlessly with New Relic’s application performance solutions. New Relic Infrastructure enables correlation of performance metrics and configuration changes to the infrastructure, enabling modern IT operations teams to move faster, scale and deploy with confidence.

The pressure on IT operations teams has been intensifying as new technologies and processes are being adopted in their organizations. The move to the cloud and container technology is radically changing the way services are configured, deployed, and scaled. Agile development is accelerating the rate of deploys and change in the software stack. Organizations are embracing DevOps culture, enabling more people to interact with production applications – all of which is leading to a more rapidly changing environment where teams need richer and more real-time data to quickly troubleshoot problems and reduce downtime.

New Relic Infrastructure is specifically designed to support the needs of modern operations teams by processing, displaying, alerting, and analyzing all the change and performance data required to manage and optimize cloud and hybrid infrastructures. Built on New Relic Insights, a scalable cloud-based data platform and powerful analytics engine, New Relic Infrastructure enables teams to slice and dice their infrastructure change and performance data in real-time. With New Relic Infrastructure, IT operations and release managers can:

  • Have a single source for live-state monitoring and change tracking of all their instances (any combination of cloud, containers, or traditional servers) by providing visibility into CPU, memory, I/O, and the various processes running on them along with a correlated change history;
  • Easily examine the inventory and any changes made to their instances via a real-time feed and identify anomalies or vulnerabilities quickly with full infrastructure search;
  • Achieve faster Mean Time To Detection (MTTD) and Resolution (MTTR) with correlated metrics and change events via dashboards and alerting that are dynamically driven by tags and metadata from cloud, automation tools, or custom attributes, and;
  • Native monitoring of Amazon EC2 and Docker with support for Amazon EC2 and Docker tags along with detailed metadata, enabling them to effectively dissect, analyze and manage instances or containers by any attribute.

“The cloud has changed the requirements for modern infrastructure management. The notion of a static server is fading, replaced with dynamic instances and containers,” said Lew Cirne, founder and CEO, New Relic. “New Relic Infrastructure provides the underlying systems context to New Relic APM and Insights, empowering software teams to measure the health and state of cloud infrastructure within the context of their applications. Fast-moving, dynamic digital businesses will now have real-time analytics on change and performance data to help them deliver operational stability, move confidently, and innovate with their software.”
