New Relic Partners in Launch of GitHub Sponsors for Companies

Open-source software plays a crucial role in modern technology, despite not being a major source of profit for developers. New Relic has actively contributed to open standards and open collaboration and is now enhancing its commitment by supporting GitHub Sponsors for companies, a program that facilitates financial support for open source developers directly through GitHub. This initiative allows entire companies to invest in open-source projects, building on the success of individual sponsorships that have already helped many developers envision open-source work as a full-time career. New Relic's involvement in projects like OpenTelemetry, the W3C Distributed Tracing Working Group, and AdoptOpenJDK demonstrates its dedication to fostering a sustainable open-source ecosystem. The company encourages further collaboration within the community, emphasizing that the development of a better internet relies on collective efforts.
