How the SMART by GEP Team Monitors Its Code Development Pipeline with New Relic

An engineering team at GEP utilized New Relic's platform to enhance their code development lifecycle after attending a presentation on measuring code pipelines at a FutureStack event. The team developed a custom measurement solution to monitor six key metrics, such as commits per branch and files modified per commit, using New Relic's insights and AWS services like CodePipeline and Lambda functions. Although GEP's team operates on Microsoft Azure, they successfully adapted the pipeline to Azure with New Relic's assistance. Their GitHub Commits dashboard provides a comprehensive view of code changes, efficiency, and code health, enabling the team to track developer activities and streamline processes by reducing unused branches. This initiative highlights New Relic's flexibility in extending its monitoring capabilities beyond standard practices, allowing developers to perform advanced analytics and improve code-pipeline practices across GEP.
