Summary

New Relic's EC2 integration enables observability and monitoring of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud instances, addressing the challenges of setting up custom monitoring solutions. By automating the process of installing the infrastructure agent, New Relic simplifies observability for customers running workloads on EC2, providing benefits such as cost savings, business agility, operational resilience, and staff productivity. The integration also enables contextually monitoring workloads running on instances, using agent-based instances and application performance management (APM). Additionally, New Relic offers an AWS Quick Start solution that automates observability for customers planning to run or already running workloads on EC2, providing a production-ready, automated reference solution built by AWS solutions architects and partners. This solution enables automatic monitoring of instances at scale, across multiple AWS Regions and accounts, with flexibility in choosing instances to monitor using tags. It also provides enriched EC2 telemetry, faster MTTR, and helps customers build AWS Well-Architured EC2 instances that meet operational excellence, performance efficiency, and cost optimization goals.
