Parse and transform your data with NRQL

New Relic has introduced several parsing and transformation functions to enhance data querying in the New Relic Query Language (NRQL), enabling users to more easily process and visualize unstructured data. These new functions include jparse(), mapKeys(), and mapValues() for parsing JSON, toTimestamp() and toDatetime() for converting timestamps, cidrAddress() for mapping IP addresses, encode() and decode() for Base64 conversions, and convert() for unit conversions. These tools aim to simplify tasks that were previously complex, such as extracting specific data points from JSON, converting epoch time to human-readable formats, and handling Base64 encoded data, allowing for more efficient dashboard creation and alert management. The enhancements are designed to assist data teams, such as DevOps, in handling data that may not be optimally stored, streamlining the process of cleaning and analyzing data without requiring pre-ingestion modifications.
