Real-World Workflows

Root cause analysis for a production incident

  2. 2Navigate to the service summary to identify the slowest transactions
  3. 3Click a slow trace to see the full distributed trace across microservices
  4. 4Correlate the trace timestamp with deployment markers to identify the bad release
  5. 5Query logs filtered by trace ID using NRQL to find the root error

Kubernetes cluster observability

  1. 1Deploy the New Relic infrastructure agent as a DaemonSet
  2. 2Enable Kubernetes integration to collect cluster, node, and pod metrics
  3. 3Use the pre-built Kubernetes dashboard in New Relic One
