Summary

JFrog's integration with New Relic enhances observability for self-hosted JFrog environments by allowing users to monitor, analyze, and visualize logs and metrics in real-time. This integration, free for all self-hosted JFrog customers, employs Fluentd to gather and process data, which is then displayed on preconfigured New Relic dashboards. These dashboards provide critical insights into performance, artifact usage, and security metrics, enabling operations and DevSecOps teams to manage performance, mitigate risks, and ensure optimal uptime proactively. Users can track trends, monitor security threats, and customize queries and alerts to suit specific needs, thereby optimizing their software supply chain environment. Setting up the integration involves a straightforward three-step installation process using Fluentd, which includes installing and configuring Fluentd and running the process to redirect logs to New Relic. This setup allows for comprehensive monitoring and visualization of key metrics from JFrog Artifactory and JFrog Xray, empowering users to maintain a robust and secure development environment.
