Click-to-parse productivity hack
Blog post from New Relic
New Relic has introduced a new click-to-parse feature for log management, enabling users to easily select and parse values from log files without manual input or additional scripting. This feature is designed to enhance productivity and reduce errors by automating the query process, setting it apart from other platforms like Dynatrace, AppDynamics, and Datadog, which rely on manual input. By allowing users to parse any log format, not just JSON, New Relic's solution simplifies the process of extracting valuable insights from log data, akin to navigating a treasure hunt as depicted in the anime series "One Piece." The feature is integrated into the New Relic Query Language (NRQL) and provides a streamlined process for defining and managing parsing rules, ultimately resulting in a more efficient analysis of IT environments.
