Accessing application logs in the context of application performance monitoring (APM) metrics has been a long-standing request for developers due to its importance in efficiently troubleshooting performance issues. The new updated APM agents from New Relic now automatically collect and forward logs without requiring manual configuration or setup, making it easier for developers to troubleshoot applications and diagnose performance issues. This feature addresses the need for log collection by providing granular configurations tailored for billing and security needs, minimizing context-switching, and enhancing the UI to surface logs alongside APM metrics and events. The update also includes robust support for security, compliance, and control, including opt-out anytime options, ingest control, compliance, and data security features. With this new feature, developers can collect logs via the APM agent, view application logs in context, use logs where needed in the enhanced UI, ensure data privacy by managing their logs, and get started with automatic logs in context.
