Automate root cause analysis in logs with New Relic and Zebrium
Blog post from New Relic
Zebrium's Root Cause as a Service (RCaaS) integrates with New Relic to streamline the process of identifying root causes of incidents in logs, which is increasingly complex due to the reliance on distributed microservices. This integration allows engineers to quickly locate the source of software or infrastructure problems without manually sifting through logs, reducing downtime and expediting issue resolution. The Zebrium quickstart in New Relic Instant Observability provides a pre-built dashboard displaying incident detections and root cause details, utilizing machine learning to analyze logs and identify anomalies with over 95% accuracy. Engineers can leverage this feature for free, with New Relic offering 100GB of monthly data ingest and unlimited basic users as part of its platform, thus alleviating the workload on SREs and DevOps teams. The setup process for this integration is designed to be quick, requiring only about 15 minutes, and does not necessitate manual machine learning training, making it accessible and efficient for users seeking to enhance their observability capabilities.
