Key Features

Real User Monitoring (RUM)
Architecture mapping
Distributed tracing for applications
Production thread profiler
Code level diagnostics with transaction traces
User satisfaction measurement with Apdex
Trace details by browser type or geographic region

Troubleshoot your App with Ruby Monitoring

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 Ruby Errors Fast

Whether your app is in a dedicated data center, a public cloud or a hybrid cloud, New Relic APM 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.

Trace applications with distributed tracing
Get critical information on NoSQL data stores and SQL databases.
Monitor background jobs and web transactions.
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.

"How do I install the New Relic agent?"

Glad you asked! Here's an example process typical for a Ruby agent installation. Your process may differ depending on the environment you're adding the New Relic agent to.

CREATE A NEW RELIC ACCOUNT
INSTALL THE NEW RELIC AGENT AS A GEM
1. Add the gem to your Gemfile:
  gem "gem name"
  gem "gem name"
  gem "gem name"
  gem "gem name"
  gem "newrelic_rpm"
2. Bundle from your application directory:
  $ bundle install
  Using newrelic_rpm (3.6.4)
  Updating files in vendor/cache
  Your bundle is complete! Use 'bundle show [gemname]' to see where a bundled gem is installed.
DOWNLOAD NEWRELIC.YML
Place the file into your app's config directory, replacing the existing one.
RESTART YOUR APPLICATION
1. A few minutes later, your application will begin sending data to New Relic.
2. Once we receive the data, your application will be listed on your dashboard.
