New Relic specialists for your dedicated team.
New Relic is an application performance monitoring platform that instruments code to show transaction traces, database timing, error rates and user-facing performance. It focuses on the application layer, above the infrastructure beneath it.
Where New Relic fits in a long-term product team.
APM answers the question infrastructure monitoring cannot: which part of this request is slow. A transaction trace showing that eighty per cent of a response is one unindexed query ends an argument that could otherwise run for a week.
It is most valuable before a problem is urgent. Instrumentation added during an incident tells you about that incident; instrumentation that has run for months tells you what changed, which is the question that matters most.
What your dedicated team does with New Relic.
Application monitoring proves its value between incidents, as much as during them. Its real output is knowing what normal looks like, and that baseline only exists if the instrumentation has been running and watched for months before it is needed.
Performance work sits across two disciplines: the load testing that provokes the problem and the platform work that fixes it. The testing half is assigned under outsource QA testing, usually on the same agreement as the platform half.
Common New Relic use cases.
- Finding the real bottleneck Transaction traces that show where time is spent, so optimisation targets the real bottleneck.
- Load testing against production reality Test results interpreted against how the application behaves with real traffic and real data volume.
- Watching a release Error rate and latency compared before and after a deploy, so a regression is caught in minutes.
Adding New Relic skills to your team.
Performance work is assigned either to a dedicated QA and testing team, where it sits with load testing, or with reliability capacity where it sits with the platform. The reasoning behind delivering this from Thailand is set out in why we deliver from Thailand.
New Relic specialists join your team remotely as dedicated, full-time team members, selected, employed and managed by us in Chiang Mai and Bangkok. Companies that hire offshore developers through Azendo add the skill at the next monthly cycle.
