Company doubles down on open source commitment
with New Relic Instant Observability, an open catalog of 400+
quickstarts to help engineers instrument, dashboard and alert their
entire stack
Leading enterprise technologies such as Cribl,
Fastly, Gigamon, Kentik, Lacework and Trend Micro contribute to
accelerate adoption of observability by all engineers
New Relic (NYSE: NEWR), the observability company, today
launched New Relic Instant Observability (I/O), an open source
ecosystem of quickstarts to empower all software engineers to
instrument, dashboard and alert their entire technology stack in
minutes. As part of New Relic’s commitment to make observability an
open, data-driven and daily practice for every engineer, New Relic
I/O offers end-to-end integrations with 400+ cloud services, open
source tools and enterprise technologies, contributed and
maintained by the community. The launch features contributions from
partners such as Cribl, Fastly, Gigamon, Kentik, Lacework and Trend
Micro to bring the power of the world’s leading technologies to
engineers everywhere, no matter the technology or use case. New
Relic I/O is available as part of New Relic’s generous free pricing
tier, so every engineer can get started without talking to sales or
providing a credit card.
According to New Relic’s 2021 Observability Forecast, while most
engineers and developers are familiar with observability, there’s a
huge gap in adopting the practice: only 26% of respondents have a
mature observability practice, and the most commonly cited barriers
to observability success are lack of resources (38%) and skill gaps
(29%). New Relic I/O addresses this gap by introducing an
ever-expanding, open ecosystem of knowledge-focused resources that
codifies the collective experience of the world’s observability
experts and practitioners to help engineers around the world unlock
the power of their data faster.
Continuing New Relic’s Commitment to “Open”
Observability
Today’s news reinforces New Relic’s commitment to making
observability a daily best practice for every engineer by
continuing their investment into the global open source community.
In the last 12 months, New Relic open sourced 10+ years of agents
R&D, standardized on OpenTelemetry, and contributed Pixie to
the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). New Relic I/O is the
continuation of this strategy to dramatically reduce the barrier
for engineers to embrace observability to plan, build, deploy and
run the great software that underpins flawless digital experiences
for their customers, employees, partners and suppliers.
“As part of our developer-first strategy and commitment to open
source and open communities, we’re proud to introduce a new open
ecosystem to help all software engineers embrace observability as a
data-driven approach and daily practice through a vibrant community
of telemetry data sources, dashboards and alert configuration
quickstarts,” said New Relic CEO Bill Staples. “We’re
honored to launch with an ever-expanding group of industry-leading
partners who will help us honor our commitment to make
observability available for all so every engineer can instantly
observe any hardware or software systems, cloud service, SaaS, IoT
device or application in seconds.”
“Over the coming years we anticipate thousands of telemetry
sources, pre-built dashboards and quickstarts will be curated from
the engineering community and consumed by millions of engineers who
need telemetry data to make better decisions across the software
lifecycle. Only New Relic is committed to this kind of open
ecosystem approach to observability," added Staples.
Unlike other exchanges that only focus on instrumentation, New
Relic I/O introduces an open hub of 400+ quickstarts that moves
beyond just instrumentation with pre-built dashboards, alert
configurations, user guides and documentation to help software
engineers get started with observability via a guided install
process. Additionally, New Relic I/O is a community built by the
world’s leading observability experts, and each contribution is
reviewed by New Relic. Users and partners can easily add new
contributions, improve existing quickstarts and provide suggestions
to the quickstart repository at any time.
