Summary

The AWS CloudFormation tool is being integrated with New Relic to simplify and automate infrastructure provisioning and management for cloud-based applications. Customers can now use New Relic's resource types in their CloudFormation templates, allowing them to manage both AWS and New Relic infrastructure through a single platform. This integration enables customers to consolidate tooling and reduce the need for custom resource types. The new resources, such as Workloads, Alerts, and Dashboards, are currently available in the US East regions and can be made available in other regions upon request. The integration also leverages AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) constructs and AWS Config support to provide a more comprehensive management experience.
