New Relic, Inc., the leading software-as-a-service provider of application performance management solutions and GigaSpaces Technologies, developer of the industry-leading eXtreme Application Platform (XAP), today announced that New Relic RPM fully supports GigaSpaces’ platform offering on and off the cloud, and that the two companies are partnering to make RPM available to GigaSpaces customers at preferred prices.

XAP supports mission-critical applications that demand extreme performance, including large-scale web applications based on popular frameworks like Java EE, Spring Framework and Jetty. It is the only product that allows existing enterprise applications to run in both virtualized environments — in private or public clouds — or in traditional data centers and move among them quickly and easily with only minor code changes.

New Relic RPM is a leading on-demand application performance management solution that operates seamlessly in both cloud and dedicated server environments, making it uniquely suited for monitoring, troubleshooting and tuning web applications deployed on GigaSpaces’ platform. Together, these solutions enable organizations to deploy and manage web applications that meet high standards for performance and availability.

"As more and more organizations begin to leverage the cloud in combination with their data center activities for IT efficiency and cost savings, we can offer them tremendous advantages through our partnership with New Relic," said Nati Shalom, GigaSpaces CTO. "By adding New Relic’s deep visibility into application performance to the power, speed and reliability of the XAP platform, our customers are better equipped to deploy, manage, and optimize their applications, both in testing and production."

"We are pleased to be working with GigaSpaces and this close partnership demonstrates both companies’ firm commitment to customer success," said Bill Lapcevic, New Relic’s vice-president of business development. "RPM installs in minutes and automatically scales with GigaSpaces applications, making it the easiest, most effective way to manage production web applications on the GigaSpaces platform. Together, our joint solutions are a perfect combination for easing migration to the cloud and enabling business and IT agility."

New Relic offers several RPM subscription levels to meet the unique needs of organizations deploying mission-critical web applications. RPM Lite, Bronze, Silver and Gold provide a wide set of capabilities from basic production monitoring, to troubleshooting incidents, to deep-dive diagnostics to application optimization and long-term trend analysis. As part of the partnership between GigaSpaces and New Relic, GigaSpaces customers are eligible for a preferred partner discount on RPM pricing and a complementary trial of RPM Gold premium service. Qualifying organizations need only to log into the GigaSpaces customer support portal, select the "Log a Case" tab, and follow the directions to sign up for RPM. Customers can select a subscription level that right for them and discounts will be applied automatically.
