Introducing New Relic eBPF Logs - Now in Public Preview

New Relic has introduced the Public Preview of its eBPF Logs, enabling automatic collection and correlation of application logs with services, without requiring additional agents or changes to application code. This development builds on New Relic's existing eBPF-based solutions, which already provide application monitoring and network visibility through a single deployment. By incorporating logs into this unified workflow, organizations can achieve a more streamlined and secure observability process, reducing the need for multiple agents and minimizing the operational attack surface. The eBPF technology, a secure and sandboxed Linux platform, facilitates this integration by allowing New Relic to observe system behavior without altering application code, thus offering a seamless experience for developers. This innovation allows teams to quickly access contextual log data, simplifying troubleshooting and decision-making during incidents, exemplified by a scenario where an FX service's log analysis leads to a rapid resolution of price quote rejections. As part of its OpenTelemetry-first approach, New Relic ensures that eBPF Logs fit into open, standards-based pipelines, maintaining user control over data and enabling filtering of sensitive information.
