Are You Redis for This? The New Relic Infrastructure Redis Integration Is Now Available
Blog post from New Relic
New Relic has announced the general availability of its Redis integration for New Relic Infrastructure Pro subscribers, enabling them to pull data from Redis servers without third-party software. This on-host integration allows users to track crucial performance and health metrics of their Redis databases, offering insights that improve overall database performance and visibility into infrastructure served by Redis. Redis, known for its fast performance and in-memory, schema-less database transactions, is popular in industries such as gaming, IoT, and mobile. The integration helps users troubleshoot issues efficiently by pinpointing potential causes such as memory shortages or key expiration, supported by metrics like uptime, connected clients, and keyspace hits versus misses. Additionally, New Relic's integration includes pre-built dashboards, enabling users to create custom queries and charts, which can be combined with data from other systems for comprehensive insights. The integration also tracks Redis inventory data, correlating configuration changes with performance outcomes, and is compatible with Redis versions 3.0 or higher.
