Developers are rapidly adopting AI-native coding tools to build and ship software faster than ever. But a massive blind spot exists: Most AI assistants operate in isolation from production telemetry. Without real-time operational context, even sophisticated AI coding agents are flying blind, leading to downstream performance bottlenecks and unexpected operational friction.
Closing the loop between code commits and performance with New Relic AI + Kiro
Today, at AWS Summit New York City, we’re excited to launch a one-click integration that connects our Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server with Kiro, the AI-native, agentic development environment from AWS. By bridging the gap between the IDE and production, this integration enriches Kiro’s agentic workflows with Intelligent Observability insights. For developer teams, this closes the feedback loop, enabling them to boost velocity, enhance code quality, and slash mean time to resolution (MTTR).
As organizations navigate this agentic transformation, they face a critical and immediate need to safely unify AI coding agents and live business data,” said Brian Emerson, Chief Product Officer at New Relic. “By integrating our MCP Server with Kiro, we are combining the rigorous, spec-driven development on AWS with New Relic's deep operational insights. The result is a seamless, one-click solution that empowers developer teams to confidently ship quality code with minimal operational friction and toil."
By delivering New Relic’s full-stack telemetry directly into Kiro, engineering teams can shift from manual, retroactive troubleshooting to proactive, AI-assisted investigation. Engineers can query live metrics, events, logs, and traces using natural language directly within Kiro's spec-driven workflow—eliminating disruptive context-switching. This unified experience ensures that AI-generated code is validated against technical specs before it ships, giving developers the confidence to deploy rapidly without breaking production.
Marking our $1 billion AWS Marketplace milestone with more Co-Build innovation
The launch of our Kiro integration marks the next product innovation in our strategic partnership with AWS, which recently surpassed $1 billion in lifetime transactions through the AWS Marketplace. This achievement reflects our shared commitment to helping customers modernize their operations and confidently accelerate their journey toward autonomous, AI-driven software development.
