How Technology Has Changed Since New Relic Was Born

In 2008, the technology industry was marked by significant advancements and trends that have had a lasting impact. The introduction of the App Store with the iPhone 3 sparked a mobile revolution, while Android became the most popular mobile operating system. Google's Chrome browser also gained popularity, eventually surpassing Internet Explorer as the top browser. Twitter emerged as a cultural phenomenon, enabling politicians to communicate directly with the world. Other notable debuts included the Apple iPod with Flash memory, Microsoft Windows 7, Hulu, and the Amazon Kindle. However, not all innovations from that year have survived or remained relevant, such as Netbooks, edible computer chips, and flexible display screens. Over the past decade, leaders in the industry have changed, including Steve Jobs at Apple and Steve Ballmer at Microsoft. New Relic, founded by Lew Cirne in 2008, has evolved into a comprehensive cloud-based platform used by over 2,100 enterprise customers, processing millions of events and metrics every minute.
