About
Overview
New Relic is a comprehensive observability platform that provides Application Performance Monitoring (APM), infrastructure monitoring, and log management. It helps DevOps teams troubleshoot issues, optimize performance, and understand system dependencies.
Pricing & Free Tier
Free Tier: Yes. Includes 100GB of free data ingest per month and 1 full-platform user.
Standard Plan: $99/user/month (billed annually). Includes 100GB data and unlimited basic users.
Pro Plan: $349/user/month. Adds advanced security and anomaly detection.
How to Use
- Create an account at newrelic.com.
- Install the New Relic agent for your language (Node.js, PHP, Java, etc.).
- Restart your application to start sending telemetry data.
- Navigate to the "APM" dashboard to view transaction traces, throughput, and error rates.
Important Notes
- Data Ingest Costs: New Relic charges based on data ingest (GB). If your app generates excessive logs, you can easily exceed the 100GB free tier.
- Agent Overhead: APM agents hook into your application's runtime. While optimized, they can slightly increase CPU and memory usage.
