Installation Python Python Application Performance Monitoring

Pinpoint and solve Python application performance issues down to the line of code. New Relic is the only tool you’ll need to see everything in your Python application—from the end user experience to server monitoring. Trace problems down to slow database queries, slow 3rd party APIs and web services, caching layers, and more. Monitor your app in a production environment and make sure your app can stand a big spike in traffic by running scalability reports.

Get the Big Picture of your Python Application—then Drill Down

Use the Application Overview Dashboard for general information about your app and then drill down to geographical information, web transactions and errors. In one place, you can easily see:

  • Response time
  • Apdex score
  • Throughput (requests per minute)
  • Web transactions
  • Error rate
  • Recent events
  • Server information

Find Python Errors and Problems Fast

Whether your app is in a dedicated data center, a public cloud or a hybrid cloud, New Relic works just the same. You’ll see page load times for real users by browser and geography. Easily see the top five web transactions, their average response times and throughput, with links to transaction traces.

  • Gain deeper insight into code bottlenecks with X-Ray Sessions.
  • Analyze application performance before and after new code deployments.
  • Create your own custom metrics, such as order value, login attempts, signups and registrations, and then create custom dashboards on those metrics.
  • Get alerted to application errors and exceptions - fix problems before they affect users.

Gain Visibility into Performance Levels

Our single UI monitors every detail of your app, from the end user experience, through your servers, and down to the line of code. Identify misconfigurations and potential bottlenecks. Give your entire team access to the New Relic dashboard so they can drill down into detailed information about web transactions, including key transactions, browser traces and transaction traces.

Why New Relic?
